Padres Latinos is a mutual aid group of more than 230 Spanish and Portuguese-speaking parents with children in the Somerville Public Schools (SPS). The group formed during the COVID-19 pandemic to advocate for SPS Latino students and reduce or eliminate the achievement gap between Latino students and their peers. The group also strengthens its community by sharing information about food, education, cultural opportunities, and housing resources. For this exhibit, Padres Latinos partnered with award-winning photographers Mario Quiroz and Iaritza Menjivar to explore stories from its members about immigration, home, family, memory, community, and finding purpose. Padres Latinos invites all Somerville residents and visitors across the region to the exhibition. Many thanks to Mass Humanities, the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), and The Leonian Foundation for their support. For more information about Padres Latinos, please visit www.padreslatinossps.org.
