Inc. plays a unique role in the New Haven community by reaching out to and serving as a support sys-" tem for Latino youth and their families. LYD provides educational. social. cultural. and recreational programs to the Latino community in New Haven. I come from a family of immigrants. I am a first generation Italian on my fathers side and a second generation Italian on my mothers side. So. I have some personal experience with the challenges immigrants face in this country. The barriers of language and the prejudices of some members of the community can be discouraging to someone just trying to find a way to raise a family and make ends meet. I wholeheartedly support efforts to assist and support working families. and I find the efforts of LYD to provide educational and employment opportunities to the Latino community particularly commendable.
