Episode Synopsis

Our local Latinx community has been hit hard by the pandemic; disproportionately hard.

In today’s special episode, we share one border family’s battle with COVID-19. They explain how they’re using their story to help other Mexican-American families like theirs.

It's a story about trust, and how living at the border can mean living in a place where trust sometimes requires translation.

The Covarrubias family’s fundraiser is here: https://www.gofundme.com/f/29p0mkof1c
