Corre La Voz
Corre la Voz (CLV) is an after-school program that promotes academic and community engagement, confidence, and joy in learning. It is a creative learning and community space that CLV makes and remakes each day and week because that’s how kids show up: remaking the world. Their pedagogies build cultural dignity, multimodal literacies, and community development. CLV serves primarily Latina/o 4th and 5th graders at Bay View Elementary and is led by UCSC undergraduate mentors. In all of their spaces, from academic mentoring to dinámica games, movie-making, and Council, they work to build strong selves with open minds and hearts in a strong bilingual learning community.
The Corre La Voz program for middle grade youth and mentors is an innovative way to build personal and community power for well-being and academic success, by bringing together undergraduates and kids to work together creatively and in a caring, intentional way.
