Juntos, an immigrant workers organization, is organizing parents around the serious lack of translators in Philadelphia public schools, especially in South Philly, where many parents speak little or no English. Milena Velis spoke to parents about their campaign. Since this piece was aired, members of JUNTOS succeeded in getting 4 deputies of the Philadelphia School District to meet with them and listen to their demands.
