色情视频

Gerardo Angel Godinez, a first-generation student majoring in social work, discovered 色情视频鈥檚  (LSSWA) by chance when he saw the slogan 鈥淥ne Heart, One Community鈥� on a poster pinned to a campus bulletin board. 

He got hooked on the idea and, now a year later, he鈥檚 president of the student-led club that does everything it can to make its motto a reality.  

鈥淪tudent members can be any race, cultural or ethnic background and major,鈥�&苍产蝉辫;explained Godinez. 鈥淲e welcome everyone who wants to celebrate their heritage, engage in open discussions about critical issues on campus and get connected to valuable 色情视频 services and resources.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;  

Members also get plenty of opportunities to do volunteer work, often in collaboration with other on-campus clubs interested in supporting and working with Latinx communities and local nonprofit agencies. 

For example, during Hispanic Heritage Month, LSSWA students participated in the San Diego AIDS Walk and Run event to support  students. They are also partnering with the  to collaborate on an upcoming project this semester helping students in marginalized communities.  

鈥淎s a group, we research the volunteer opportunities we are passionate about and want to do, and we invite other campus associations to do that with us,鈥� Godinez said. 

Last year, LSSWA collected and delivered blankets to people experiencing homelessness, and they donated 100 bags of food for needy families in Barrio Logan. They鈥檒l do a similar project this December in collaboration with the Latino Social Work Network of San Diego. 

Student members meet twice a month and share experiences that promote educational, professional, and personal growth. Guest speakers and members offer additional opportunities such as practicing public speaking and learning about applying to graduate school. 

鈥淭he majority of our members are first-generation college students,鈥� said Dahlia Fuentes, associate director and lecturer at 色情视频鈥檚 School of Social Work and the LSSWA faculty advisor.

Fuentes said the meetings offer an enhanced educational experience and provide an opportunity for students to network across programs, with 色情视频 alumni and professionals in the community. The gatherings also include time to socialize.

鈥淲e also do fun activities while learning about relevant and vital issues to the Latinx communities,鈥� said Fuentes 鈥淪tudents have a great time. For example, in our next meeting, LSSWA members will celebrate the significance of Dia de los Muertos while decorating sugar skulls.鈥�

Godinez said giving back to students and the community that helped him is vital to his well-being and success. 

鈥淚鈥檓 a survivor of trauma, and after my dad passed away a few years ago, I was lucky to get the assistance, resources, and support through a mentor on campus,鈥� said Godinez. 鈥淚 want to give that back to students with similar experiences. This association helps me to do that.鈥�&苍产蝉辫;
