Hiring plans steady as business
owners sour on U.S. economy
One in four plan
to hire more
employees – same
as six months ago
PITTSBURGH,
PRNewswire-HISPANIC
PR WIRE/ -- Small and
mid-sized business owners
are cautious about the
next six months amid
greater pessimism about
the economy given the
stock market volatility
and presidential election
rhetoric, according to
the latest PNC Economic
Outlook Survey findings. The spring findings
of
PNC’s
biannual
telephone survey, which
began in 2003, reveal
that 43 percent are
pessimistic about the
U.S. economy, the most
since 2012, and up from
33 percent in the fall.
Meanwhile, 30 percent
are pessimistic about their
local economy, which is
the highest since 2013.
Yet one in four (24
percent) plan to hire
additional
employees
during the next six
months, similar to the
26 percent last fall and
22 percent a year ago.
The bright spot is that 43
percent of manufacturing
firms plan to hire, which
is up from 26 percent six
months ago.
PNC’s survey findings
show a positive trend
over the past five years
among small and midsized business owners
when it comes to making
money. Nearly half (45
percent) expect profits
to increase during the
next six months while 41
percent expect the bottom
line to remain the same.
Only 12 percent expect
a decrease, the lowest
since 2006. In terms of
sales, 51 percent expect
an increase compared to
52 percent in the fall.
“Business
owners’
mood may have been
impacted by the stock
market volatility and
presidential
campaign
rhetoric since the start
of
the
year,”
said
PNC’s Chief Economist
Stuart Hoffman. “But
their cautious optimism
about sales, profits and
hiring represents solid
fundamentals for the
economy. These findings
are far from a warning
sign of recession from
small business owners.”
Hoffman
estimates
the probability of a U.S.
recession in 2016 is only
about 20 percent. He
added that the overall
survey results reinforce
the fundamentals are solid
for the U.S. economy and
supports PNC’s forecast
for real GDP growth of
2.0 percent this year,
slightly slower from the
2015 pace.
Financing
Needs
Remain Limited
Although expectations
for business prospects
are promising, loan and
credit demand continue
on a slow path upward.
Eight out of 10 owners
(83 percent) say they
will not pursue new loans
or lines of credit in the
next six months while 14
percent will. Asked if the
prospect of rising interest
rates would impact pursuit
of a loan, 76 percent said
it wouldn’t.
Other key findings
include:
Presidential
Matters: More than
half (53 percent) said
they were not satisfied
the potential presidential
candidates
were
addressing the key issues
for business owners.
Fewer Pay Raises
on the Way: 34
percent
expect
to
increase employees’ pay
compared to 42 percent
in the fall, which was the
most since 2007.
Shortage of Skilled
Workers: Three in 10
say it is harder to find
qualified
employees
compared
to
6-12
months ago. The biggest
hiring challenge is that
candidates don’t have
the technical skills specific
to the business, i.e.,
computer
applications,
tools or machinery.
Further
Decline
in Pricing Pressure:
Nearly three in 10 (29
percent) plan to charge
Los planes de contratación de personal siguen firmes pero dueños
de empresas están desencantados con la economía estadounidense
Uno de cada cuatro
planea contratar
más empleados.
PITTSBURGH,
PRNewswire-HISPANIC
PR WIRE/ -- Los dueños
de pequeñas y medianas
empresas en Estados
Unidos
continúan
cautelosos en medio de
mayor pesimismo sobre
la economía, dada la
volatilidad del mercado
bursátil y la retórica de las
elecciones presidenciales,
según hallazgos de la
última encuesta sobre
perspectiva económica
de PNC.
Los
resultados
de
la encuesta, que es
realizada vía telefónica
por PNC dos veces al año
y que se llevó a cabo por
primera vez en el 2003,
revelan que el 43 por
ciento de los encuestados
son
pesimistas
sobre
la
economía
estadounidense, la mayor
cifra desde el 2012 y una
subida con respecto al 33
por ciento en el pasado
otoño. Mientras tanto, el
30 por ciento es pesimista
sobre la economía local,
la cifra más alta desde el
2013.
Sin embargo, uno de
cada cuatro (24 por
ciento) planea contratar
más empleados en los
próximos seis meses, un
número similar al 26 por
ciento del otoño pasado
y al 22 por ciento hace
un año. Lo positivo es
que el 43 por ciento de
las fábricas planean
contratar, una cifra muy
superior al 26 por ciento
hace seis meses.
Los
hallazgos
de
la encuesta de PNC
muestran una tendencia
positiva a lo largo de los
últimos cinco años entre
los dueños de pequeñas
y medianas empresas en
cuanto a las ganancias.
Casi la mitad (45 por
ciento) espera tener más
ganancias durante los
próximos seis meses
mientras que el 41 por
ciento espera que los
resultados se mantengan.
Sólo el 12 por ciento
espera un descenso, la
cifra más baja desde
2006. En términos de
ventas, el 51 por ciento
espera un aumento, frente
al 52 por ciento el otoño
pasado.
“El ánimo de los dueños
de
empresas
puede
haber sido afectado
por la volatilidad del
mercado bursátil y la
retórica de la campaña
presidencial”, señaló el
economista en jefe de
PNC, Stuart Hoffman.
“Pero
su
optimismo
cauteloso
sobre
las
ventas, las ganancias y
la contratación laboral
representa bases sólidas
para la economía. Estos
hallazgos están muy
lejos de ser una señal
de recesión por parte de
los dueños de pequeñas
empresas”.
Hoffman calcula que
la probabilidad de una
recesión en los Estados
Unidos en el 2016 es sólo
de aproximadamente 20
por ciento. Añadió que
los resultados generales
de la encuesta refuerzan
la noción de que las
bases de la economía
estadounidense
son
sólidas, y apoyan el
pronóstico de PNC de un
crecimiento real del PIB
del 2.0 por ciento este
año, apenas por debajo
del ritmo del 2015.
Las necesidades de
financiamiento
siguen
limitadas
Aunque
las
expectativas de negocios
son prometedoras, la
demanda de préstamos y
créditos sigue en una lenta
tendencia
ascendente.
Ocho de cada 10 dueños
(83 por ciento) dice
que no tomará nuevos
préstamos ni líneas de
crédito en los próximos
seis meses mientras que
el 14 por ciento dice lo
contrario. Al preguntarles
si la posibilidad de
una subida en las tasas
de interés afectaría la
búsqueda de préstamos,
el 76 por ciento dijo que
no.
Otros hallazgos claves
incluyen:
Asuntos presidenciales:
Más de la mitad (53
por ciento) dijo que no
estaba conforme con
cómo los precandidatos
presidenciales abordan
temas claves para los
dueños de empresas.
Pronóstico para menos
alzas de salarios: El
34 por ciento espera
subir los salarios de sus
empleados, frente al
42 por ciento en otoño,
que fue la cifra más alta
desde 2007.
Falta de trabajadores
calificados: Tres de cada
10 dueños dice que es
más difícil encontrar
trabajadores calificados
en comparación con
los últimos 12 meses. El
mayor desafío a la hora
de contratar personal es
que los candidatos no
tienen las habilidades
técnicas específicas que
necesita la empresa,
es decir; dominio de
aplicaciones informáticas,
herramientas
o
maquinaria.
YOUR LATINO CONNECTION SINCE 1996
Mayor declive en la
presión sobre los precios:
Casi tres de cada 10
(29 por ciento) planea
subir sus precios, a la
par que en otoño (28
por ciento). En cuanto a
los precios que cobran
los proveedores, el 44
por ciento espera que
suban, frente al 50 por
ciento hace seis meses.
77 por ciento espera que
los precios al consumidor
suban este año, lo que en
parte refleja la marcada
caída de los precios de la
energía.
Impacto de los costos
de la atención médica:
Cuando se les preguntó
por la Ley del Cuidado de
Salud, el 78 por ciento
dice que no tuvo ningún
efecto en la contratación
de sus empleados durante
2015 y un número similar
(82 por ciento) no espera
que tenga ningún impacto
este año. La mayoría

higher prices, on par
with (28 percent) in the
fall. For prices charged
by suppliers, 44 percent
expect
price
hikes
compared to 50 percent
six months ago. Seventyseven percent expect
consumer prices to rise
this year, partly reflecting
the sharp drop in energy
prices.
Healthcare
Cost
Impact: Asked about
the Affordable Care Act,
78 percent say it had
no effect on their 2015
hiring and a similar
number (82 percent)
don’t expect impact this
year. Most (56 percent)
said insurance premiums
increased in 2015 – and
nearly half said they went
up 10 percent or more.
Looking ahead to 2016,
40 percent expect costs to
increase, down from 49
percent in the fall.
Housing
Prices
Continue
to
Rise:
Most (57 percent) expect
prices to rise in their local
market in the next 6-12
months, on par with 58
percent in the fall.
Methodology
The PNC Economic
Outlook
survey
was
conducted
between
January 21 to March
8, 2016, by telephone
within the United States
among 1,867 owners or
senior
decision-makers
of small and mid-sized
businesses with annual
revenues of $100,000 to
$250 million. The results
given in this release are
based
on
interviews
with 502 businesses
nationally,
while
the
remaining
interviews
were conducted among
businesses within the
states
of
Alabama,
Florida, Georgia, Illinois,
Indiana,
Michigan,
North Carolina, Ohio
and Pennsylvania plus
Washington,
D.C.
Sampling error for the
national results is +/- 4.4
percent at the 95 percent
confidence level. The
survey was conducted by
Artemis Strategy Group
(www.ArtemisSG.com), a
communications strategy
research firm specializing
in brand positioning
and policy issues. The
firm,
headquartered
in Washington D.C.,
provides communications
research and consulting
to a range of public and
private sector clients.
(56 por ciento) dijo que
las primas de seguro
aumentaron en el 2015,
y casi la mitad dijo que
aumentaron un 10 por
ciento o más. Con miras
al 2016, el 40 por ciento
espera que los costos
suban, una cifra menor
que el 49 por ciento en
otoño.
El precio de las
viviendas
continúa
aumentando: La mayoría
(57 por ciento) espera
que los precios de las
viviendas aumenten en
su mercado local en los

National Hispanic Heritage
Month from September 15 to
October 15, by celebrating
the
histories,
cultures
and
contributions of American citizens
whose ancestors came from Spain,
Mexico, the Caribbean and Central
and South America.
The observation started in 1968
as Hispanic Heritage Week under
President Lyndon Johnson and was
expanded by President Ronald
Reagan in 1988 to cover a 30-day
period starting on September 15
and ending on October 15. It was
enacted into law on August 17,
1988, on the approval of Public
Law 100-402.
American
recognize
the
contributions made and the
important presence of Hispanic
and Latino Americans to the
United States and celebrate their
heritage and culture. Hispanics
have had a profound and positive
influence on our country through
their strong commitment to family,
faith, hard work, and service. They
have enhanced and shaped our
national character with centuriesold traditions that reflect the multiethnic and multicultural customs
of their community.
Hispanic
Heritage Month, whose roots go
back to 1968, begins each year
on September 15, the anniversary
of independence of five Latin
American countries: Costa Rica, El
Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras
and Nicaragua. Mexico, Chile
and Belize also celebrate their
independence days during this
period and Columbus Day (Día de

On the 2010 Census form, people
of Spanish, Hispanic and/or Latino
origin could identify themselves
as Mexican, Mexican American,
Chicano, Puerto Rican, Cuban,
or “another Hispanic, Latino, or
Spanish origin. ”Today, 55 million
people or 17% of the American
population are of Hispanic or
Latino origin. This represents a
significant increase from 2000,
which registered the Hispanic
population at 35.3 million or 13%

Concieving, Believing
How to discipline a child
with ADHD while avoiding and Achieving Progress
feelings of guilt
T
he
symptoms
associated
with
attention-deficithyperactivity disorder
can put even the best
parenting skills to the test.
Children and teenagers
with ADHD don’t listen,
or at least don’t seem to
listen. They often fail to
complete tasks, whether
it’s a school assignment or
a household chore. They
can be impulsive, hitting
a sibling or classmate
when they feel frustrated,
or failing to wait their turn
when playing a game.
As a spotlight is put
on the condition during
October, which is ADHD
Awareness Month, it’s
worth noting that the
disorder has an impact on
the parents as well as the
offspring.
Irritated by repeated
undesirable
behaviors,
mothers and fathers may
lash out, dealing more
harshly with infractions
than they should. Later,
feeling guilty because of
their overreaction, the
parents may allow the
child to get away with
other misbehaviors.
Then tension builds
again until once more the
peeved parents explode
and begin feeling guilty
about their reactions all
over again.
“It’s important to break
that cycle of guilt when
dealing with the ADHD
child,”
says
Daniel
Amen, M.D., a clinical
neuroscientist and brainimaging expert who also
is the founder of Amen
Clinics,
which
treat
patients at six locations
around the country.
“The best way to do
that is to deal with difficult
behavior whenever it
occurs and not allowing
the tension to build
up. Retraining difficult
behavior
patterns
is
an essential part of the
treatment for ADD.”
Amen,
author
of
“Healing ADD” and the
New York Times bestseller
“Change Your Brain,
Change Your Life,” says
there are steps parents
can take that will help
shape positive behavior in
a child with ADD/ADHD
and help the parent avoid
those guilty feelings.
• Define the desired
and
undesirable
behaviors. Before you
can shape behavior, you
need to be clear on what
behaviors you want and
don’t want, Amen says.
A desirable behavior
might be doing homework
before going out to play.
An undesirable behavior
might be talking back to
a parent.
• Establish how often
negative
or
positive
behavior occurs. Keep
a log for anywhere from
a week to a month to
track how many times a
behavior occurs. Having
a baseline will allow you
to know whether your
interventions are having
an effect.
• Communicate rules
and expectations clearly.
When children know what
is expected of them, they
are much more likely to do
it. Too often, Amen says,
parents believe children
should know how to act
without the rules being
clearly communicated.
•
Reward
desired
behavior. Once clear
expectations are given,
it’s essential to reward
the behavior that meets
expectations.
Rewards
can be such things as
verbal praise, a hug, a
small present, a trip to the
library or park, and even
money.
•
Administer
clear,
unemotional
consequences for negative
behavior. Be in control of
your emotions, don’t nag
or belittle the child, and
use logical consequences.
For example, if a child
refuses to put away his
or her toys, the toys could
be taken away for a few
days.
Having
a
good
relationship
with
the
child is perhaps the most
important factor, Amen
says.
“With a good parentchild relationship, almost
any form of discipline
will work,” he says.
“With a poor parent-child
relationship, any form of
discipline will probably
fail. Relationships require
two things: time and a
willingness to listen.”

Three key immigration
takeaways from recent
public polling
Washington,
DC
–
Among the rash of recent
polling on immigration are
three key storylines:
78%
of
Americans
back
citizenship
for
undocumented immigrants
in new Post/ABC Poll:
The new Washington
Post-ABC
News
poll
finds
that
Americans
overwhelmingly support
citizenship
instead
of
deportation
for
undocumented immigrants.
As the accompanying
poll summary notes, “78
percent of voters … prefer
offering
undocumented
immigrants who pass
background checks a
path to citizenship, which
is Clinton’s position …
Among Trump’s supporters
… 62 percent say they
prefer a path to citizenship
over
deportation.”
Americans’ overwhelming
support for citizenship
is also seen in a CNN
poll released last week,
which found that by
an 88%-11% margin,
Americans support, rather
than oppose, a path to
citizenship. The CNN
poll also found that, when
asked what our country’s
top priority for immigration
policy should be, 51% of
the public said legalization
for
undocumented
immigrants, while only
11% said deportation.
In July, a Gallup poll
similarly found that 84%
of Americans (91% of
Democrats,
85%
of
Independents, and 76%
of Republicans) support a
path to citizenship.
Latino
Decisions’
National and Battleground
State Polling: Donald Trump
is on track for a historically
low performance among
Latino
voters:
Latino
Decisions’ recent massive
sample nationwide poll
of Latino voters finds that
Hillary Clinton is beating
Donald Trump 70%-19%
(and by a slightly larger,
72%-17% margin in an
online poll conducted to
gauge Latinos’ reactions
to Trump’s immigration
speech). As Greg Sargent
wrote in the Washington
Post,
the
national
presidential
head-tohead margin is, “better
than Barack Obama was
faring among Latinos at
the same point in 2012,
when Latino Decisions
polling found him beating
Mitt Romney by 65-26.”
Additionally, in the seven
battleground states polled
by
Latino
Decisions,
Clinton leads Trump by the
following margins among
Latino voters: 70%-18%
in Arizona; 72%-17%
in Colorado; 62%-27%
in Florida; 70%-14% in
Nevada; 73%-14% in
North Carolina; 61%-22%
in Ohio; and 67%-19% in
Virginia. This puts Trump
on track to underperform
Mitt Romney’s historically
poor performance among
Latino voters in 2012,
when Latinos supported
President Obama by a
75%-23% margin over
Romney, according to
Latino Decisions 2012
Election Eve polling (71%27% in media-sponsored
exit polls).
Democrats may be
“leaving
Latino
votes
on the table” in large
part because of failing
to define themselves on
immigration - especially
in key 2016 Senate
contests: As NBC News
noted of the new Latino
polling, Trump “is a drag
on other Republican races
in swing states, but that
Democrats are not making
the most of it because
they are leaving Latino
votes on the table … [the
statewide Latino Decisions
polling] also found that
Latinos were less likely to
vote for their Republican
Senate candidate if they
knew that the candidate
was supporting Trump.
But many Latino voters
were unaware of where
either candidate stood
on immigration or Trump.
Advocates called this
a
missed
opportunity
because enthusiasm and
interest was reported to
be high largely because of
the attention brought on by
the media on Trump.” In
the six battleground states
polled that feature a 2016
Senate race:
AZ: Democrat Ann
Kirkpatrick
leads
Republican Senator John
McCain 57%-31%; 76%
of Latino voters don’t know
Ann Kirkpatrick’s position
on reform with a path to
citizenship and executive
actions; 61% don’t know
John McCain’s.
CO:
Democratic
Senator Michael Bennett
leads Republican Darryl
Glenn 72%-17%; 69% of
Latino voters don’t know
Michael Bennet’s position
on reform with a path to
citizenship and executive
actions; 65% don’t know
Darryl Glenn’s.
FL: Democrat Patrick
Murphy leads Republican
Senator Marco Rubio
47%-43%; 63% of Latino
voters don’t know Patrick
Murphy’s
position
on
reform with a path to
citizenship and executive
actions; 47% don’t know
Marco Rubio’s.
NV:
Democrat
Catherine Cortez-Masto
leads Republican Joe
Heck 61%-22%; 64% of
Latino voters don’t know
Catherine Cortez-Masto’s
position on reform with
a path to citizenship and
executive actions; 65%
don’t know Joe Heck’s.
NC: Democrat Deborah
Ross leads Republican
Senator Richard Burr 58%24%; 76% of Latino voters
don’t
know
Deborah
Ross’s position on reform
with a path to citizenship
and executive actions;
71% don’t know Richard
Burr’s.
OH:
Democrat
Ted
Strickland
leads
Republican Senator Rob
Portman 50%-32%; 65%
of Latino voters don’t know
Ted Strickland’s position
on reform with a path to
citizenship and executive
actions; 62% don’t know
Rob Portman’s.
According
to
Lynn
Tramonte, Deputy Director
of America’s Voice, “It is
clear that the American
people are light-years
ahead of Donald Trump –
in fact ahead of the entire
GOP – when it comes
to supporting common
sense immigration reform.
And it is also clear that
the GOP is falling off a
demographic cliff with
Latinos, with Trump leading
the way to the lowest
vote count among Latinos
and immigrants ever. Yet
Trump’s extremism is not
enough for Democrats to
maximize their vote share
and win more elections. If
Democrats run strong on
the immigration issue and
their plans to address it,
they’ll attract Americans of
all backgrounds who are
tired of the blame game
and looking for solutions.”

Rev. Jesse Jackson shares his civil rights vision with Central Academy students
T
he Reverend Jesse
Jackson, Sr., knows
from long, hard
experience that one
of the hardest battles a
young person of color will
fight is to even imagine
that he or she can make
a difference. On Tuesday,
Sept. 6, Jackson planted
that vision into students
at Central Academy of
Excellence.
“If my mind can
conceive it, and my heart
can believe it, then I can
achieve it,” Jackson told
the assembled students
and staff.
Jackson was already
in Kansas City because
of his participation at
the National Baptist
Convention. He visited
Central Academy in order
to encourage students to
pursue their education
and get involved in the
election process.
Reverend Jackson is the
founder and president
of the Rainbow PUSH
Coalition. He is one of
America’s foremost civil
rights, religious and
political figures. In 2000,
President Bill Clinton
awarded
Reverend
Jackson the Presidential
Medal of Freedom, the
nation’s highest civilian
honor.
At Central Academy,
Jackson
described
working
with
the
Reverend Martin Luther
King, Jr., to help end
legal segregation in the
United States and begin
to implement civil rights
legislation and policies.
None of those advances
would have been possible
without
the
nation’s
minorities participating
in the election process
and voting, Jackson
explained.
At the end of his
speech, Jackson asked
students who were 18
years old to stand up and
register to vote. More
than 20 students were
registered on site at the
assembly.
During
a
press
conference
following
the assembly, Jackson
suggested
that
Americans need to place
more value of making
sure that young people
– particularly people
of color – get access
to a great education.
He pointed out that
African Americans make
up about 8 percent of
Missouri’s
population,
but account for 75
percent of the football
players at the University
of Missouri.
“We
must
pursue
academics with the same
kind of vigor with which
we pursue athletics,”
Jackson said.

Are the Parties Over?
The Latino Vote
Beyond the Party Conventions
by Angelo Falcón
L
ess than 100 days left, it is now
Clinton versus Trump (with Stein
and Johnson looking on). We
have survived two weeks of the
major party conventions, where they
picked their champions and unfolded
their messages to the electorate. The
contrasts between the Democrats
and the Republicans couldn’t be
greater, making the Latino role clearer
regarding who to vote for, but they may
have, at the same time, fed a cynicism
that could wind up depressing Latino
turnout.
The main takeaway in the media
about the conventions was that
Trump’s message was very dark
while Clinton’s was too rosy. Both
events tried to humanize their
standard bearers given the extremely
high unfavorability ratings both
have accumulated. The results
were mounds of insincerity poured
on highly imperfect candidates
expressed in the “Never Trump” and
“Bernie or Bust” movements that, in
the end, went nowhere.
It has become clear that the
Republican Party under Trump is
banking on their ability to win
primarily with the White male vote,
largely discarding Latinos and
other communities of color except
rhetorically. The themes of the
Republican National Convention on
“law and order,” immigration as a
crime issue, Muslims as terrorists, and
so on all resonated as powerful racial
dog whistles.
This was reflected in the sparse Latino
presence at the RNC Convention last
week. Of the 2,472 delegates, only
about 133 or 5 percent were Latino.
Of the 72 speakers, only 6, or 9
percent was Latino. Latinos currently
comprise about 18 percent of the US
population.
The
Democrats
were
much
more inclusive of Latinos in their
convention. Of the 4,766 delegates
attending, 747 were Latinos or 16
percent of the total. Of the speakers
at the convention, 19, or 14 percent
were Latino. The biggest absence at
both conventions was that of Latino
musical performers; both events were
salsaless.
However, it is interesting that the
Republican Party has been more
successful in fielding Latino candidates
for high-level elected office. The
only two Latino state governors are
Republicans, as are two of the three
Latinos serving in the United States
Senate. It is also interesting that despite
what some refer to as Democratic
“Hispandering” Latinos remained
❖
the most underrepresented groups in
federal government employment (only
8 percent) and even worse off with
President Obama’s appointments
(only 7 percent Latino).
Regarding the leadership of the
Democratic National Committee,
on the other hand, appear wellrepresented, at least for the time being.
Of the ten leadership positions, three
are held by Latinos. Once if a Vice
Chair, Maria Elena Durazo, Executive
Secretary-Treasurer of the AFL-CIO,
the National Finance Chair, Henry
Muñoz III, and the Communication
Director, Luis Miranda. Miranda,
unfortunately, has gotten caught in the
middle of the Wikileaks controversy
and even has Latino immigrant rights
advocates calling for his resignation.
It is, therefore, surprising that
the 18=member DNC Platform
Committee had only one Latino
member, U.S. Rep. Luis Gutiérrez
(D-Illinois). Also, while they include
representatives from non-elected
officials, such as a business owner,
the Center for American Progress;
Union Theological Seminary and the
Arab-American Institute. No Latin
organizations were included.
An argument can be made that
while the focus has been on Trump
and Sanders as unusual political,
personal outliers that, at the core
of the current electoral instability
we are experiencing, is the result
of the increasing dysfunction of the
American two-party system. The
Republican Party completely lost
control of its candidate selection
function and the Democrats have
barely held on to it. For outsiders like
the Latino community, this dysfunction
creates opportunities to male political
gains.
The Republicans are in such
disarray that what this party will be
morphing into is not knowable ta
this point. The Democratic Party, on
the other hand, is finding itself with
an unexpectedly competitive election
and a strong potential interest left
internal reform movement courtesy of
the Bernie Sanders campaign. Under
these circumstances, the role of the
Latino vote becomes more important
than ever in some battleground
states creating an a-unique opening
for demanding a greater decisionmaking role in both the DNC and the
Clinton campaign.

Early-life language stimulation, skills
may prevent childhood depression
COLUMBIA, Mo. –
Childhood depression
can lead to social,
emotional
and
academic
setbacks
during childhood and
later in life. However,
little is known about
what
contributes
to
children’s
developing
depressive
symptoms.
Researchers
from
University of Missouri
have determined that the
level of language skills
young children possess
early in life can predict
the likelihood they may
experience depression.
Keith
Herman,
a
professor
in
MU’s
College of Education,
found that children who
experience low levels
of language learning
stimulation beginning at
three years of age are
more likely to experience
language delays by first
grade and are three
times more likely to
develop depression by
third grade.
“It is clear that the
amount of language that
children are exposed to
early on is very important
for their development,”
Herman said. “Whether
it is through pre-school
classes,
interactions
with
parents
and
siblings
or
through
consuming media such
as television and books,
exposure to greater
amounts of language
and vocabulary will
help prepare children
to succeed socially and
academically
when
they begin school. If
children already are
experiencing language
and subsequent social
and academic deficits by
the first grade, chances
are they will continue
to fall further behind in
school each year, which
can lead to negative
self-perceptions
and
depressive symptoms by
third grade.”

The
data
included
children’s
language skills and
exposure to language
stimulation in the home
beginning at age three.
The
children
were
tested on their language
skills in the first grade
and then tested for
depressive
symptoms
in the third grade. The
children who had higher
language exposure and
stimulation as three-yearolds were more likely to
have adequate to betterthan-average language
skills in first grade.
They also were much
less likely to experience
depression by the third
grade. Children who did
not receive adequate
language
stimulation
early in life were much
more likely to have poor
language skills and
❖
ultimately
experience
depression.
“These findings are
important
because
we have been able to
identify key stages of
child development that
can help determine the
mental health of children
later in their academic
careers,” Herman said.
“By understanding that
the amount of language a
child is exposed to early
in life is important, we
can create interventions
and
programs
that
can help parents and
childcare
providers
improve
language
exposure during this

Talk about humble beginnings
CONT./PAGE 1
the newspaper after my
regular news duties.
One year of double
duty, basically 7 days a
week and an average
of 70 hours took its toll
on me and of course my
family. I finally had to
say goodbye and thank
you to Fox 4. It was time
for me to move on with
my dream of bringing
full-time Latino news
coverage to our growing
Latino community.
In 1996, a few months
before we premiered, I
was asked to MC a fiesta
at the City Market. I
thought it made sense to
place an informational
booth to inform the
people that in a matter
of months, Kansas City
Hispanic News would
premiere. We didn’t have
a lot to offer in our booth,
not even a prototype
of the newspaper. My
wife Ramona and my
family were manning
the booth while I was
on stage announcing
and introducing dance
groups and the bands.
My sister Susie came to
me on stage and asked
me if I had change for
twenty dollars. I didn’t
realize what she needed
it for. She told me people
were in line wanting to
buy a subscription to
the newspaper. We only
had a banner that read
“Coming Soon Kansas
City Hispanic News”
nothing else.
To my
surprise, my family sold
nearly three hundred
dollars in subscriptions.
People paid with cash
and checks while others
promised to subscribe.
One person told me they
had seen my work on
television and “I want
to read your newspaper
when it comes out.” It
was a great feeling for
me and my family that
people would buy a
product sight unseen.
You talk about humble
beginning.
Recently, I looked
back to what I wrote in
that first September 16,
1996 edition. I wanted
to see if I was meeting my
own mission statement to
our readers. I said then
that I wanted to bring a
more in-depth approach
to covering news in
Kansas City. I wanted
to hear the voices of
our Latino communities
men,
women,
children, students, area
businesses, city and
county governments and
most importantly the
people of Kansas City.
I truly believe we
have achieved that with
our staff of professional
journalists/reporters.
Often newspapers are
referred to as the voice
of a community. That
is not enough for this
newspaper. YOU are
the voice and we are
the messenger of your
opinions and thoughts.
Over the last 20 years,
we have covered what
I call the good the bad
and the ugly in Kansas
City - murders, robbery,
scandals in government,
locally and nationally,
just to mention a few.
We have also celebrated
good news, highlighting
people who are making
a difference in KC
whether helping a family
in need, a family dealing
with cancer or covering
a story of a family that
has lost a family member
in a drive-by shooting.
We have also endorsed
a few politicians over
the years. We have
had readers that have
complained about our
choices, some accusing
me of being a Republican
while others accused me
of being a Democrat
because some of our
readers believe that we
gave more coverage to
one party over the other.
We strive to bring the
news that people are
talking about so please
keep those calls and
emails coming our way.
We pride ourselves on
reporting the news with
balance and clarity to
ensure you are getting
both sides of a story. We
often see that other news
outlets are not covering
stories in our growing
Latino neighborhoods,
whether in Kansas or
Missouri. There are many
stories that need to be
covered and we do our
best to cover them, and
yes from time to time we
miss a few because there
is so much going on.
From day one my
philosophy has been, if
we can make you think,
laugh or even cry about
the information you read
each week in KCHN,
Hablar de origenes humildes
CONT./PÁGINA 1
de 26 años cuando
empecé a pensar en la
idea de un periódico.
Mi director de noticias,
Mike McDonald, me
convenció de quedarme
en el canal de noticias
y producir el periódico
después de mis deberes
regulares de noticias.
Un año de una doble
función,
básicamente,
los 7 días de la semana
y un promedio de 70
horas tuvieron su efecto
en mí, y por supuesto,
en mi familia. Al final
tuve que decir adiós y
gracias a Fox 4. Era el
momento para mí de
seguir adelante con mi
sueño, el de llevar la
cobertura de noticias
latinas
de
tiempo
completo
a
nuestra
creciente
comunidad
latina.
En 1996, unos meses
antes de que estrenamos,
me pidieron que fuera el
maestro de ceremonias
en una fiesta en el City
Market. Me pareció que
tenía sentido colocar
un stand para informar
a la gente, que en
cuestión
de
meses,
Kansas City Hispanic
News se estrenaría. No
teníamos mucho que
ofrecer en nuestro stand,
ni siquiera un prototipo
del periódico. Mi esposa
Ramona, y mi familia,
atendían
el
stand
mientras yo estaba en el
escenario anunciando y
presentando a los grupos
de baile y las bandas
musicales.
Mi hermana Susie
se acerco a mí en el
escenario y me preguntó
si tenía cambio para un
billete de veinte dólares.
No me di cuenta para
que
lo
necesitaba.
Ella me dijo que la
gente estaba haciendo
fila
porque
querían
comprar una suscripción
al
periódico.
Sólo
teníamos un letrero que
decía
“Próximamente
Kansas City Hispanic
News”,
nada
más.
Para mi sorpresa, mi
familia vendió cerca
de trescientos dólares
en suscripciones. Las
personas pagaron con
dinero en efectivo y
cheques, mientras que
otros se comprometieron
a
suscribirse.
Una
persona me dijo que
habían visto mi trabajo
en la televisión y “quiero
leer su periódico cuando
salga”. Fue una gran
sensación para mí y para
mi familia, que la gente
comprara un producto
que aún no conocía.
Se habla de comienzos
humildes.
Recientemente,
miré
hacia atrás, a lo que
había escrito en esa
primera edición del
16 de septiembre de
1996. Yo quería ver si
estaba cumpliendo con
mi misión de objetivos
fundamentales
para
nuestros lectores. Dije
entonces, que quería
traer un enfoque más
en
profundidad
al
momento
de
cubrir
las noticias en Kansas
City. Quería escuchar
las voces de nuestras
comunidades latinas hombres, mujeres, niños,
estudiantes, empresas de
la zona, los gobiernos
de ciudades y condados
y lo más importante, la
gente de Kansas City.
Realmente creo que
lo hemos conseguido
con nuestro equipo de
periodistas/reporteros
profesionales.
A
menudo, a los periódicos
se les conoce como la
voz de una comunidad.
Eso no es suficiente para
este periódico. USTED
es la voz y nosotros
somos el mensajero
de sus opiniones y
pensamientos.
Durante los últimos 20
años, hemos cubierto lo
que yo llamo lo bueno,
lo malo y lo feo en
Kansas City - asesinatos,
robos, escándalos en
el gobierno, a nivel
local y nacional, sólo
por mencionar algunos
temas. También hemos
celebrado
buenas
noticias, destacando a
las personas que están
haciendo una diferencia
en KC ya sea ayudando
a
una
familia
en
necesidad, a una familia
enfrentando el cáncer o
cubriendo una historia
de una familia que ha
perdido a un integrante
en un tiroteo.
También
hemos
respaldado
a
unos
pocos políticos en los
últimos años. Hemos
tenido a lectores que se
han quejado de nuestras
decisiones,
algunos
acusándome de ser
republicano,
mientras
que otros me acusaron de
ser un demócrata porque
algunos de nuestros
lectores creen que dimos
mayor cobertura a una
partido sobre el otro.
Nos esforzamos en
traer la noticia que está
discutiendo la gente, así
que, por favor, continúen
con esas llamadas y
correos
electrónicos
dirigidos a nosotros.
Estamos orgullosos de
informar las noticias con
imparcialidad y claridad,
para asegurar que están
recibiendo los ambos
lados de una historia. A
menudo vemos que otras
agencias de noticias no
están cubriendo historias
en nuestros crecientes
barrios latinos, ya sea en
Kansas o Missouri. Hay
muchas historias que
necesitan ser cubiertas y
hacemos todo lo posible
para cubrirlas y, sí, de
vez en cuando nos faltan
algunas porque hay
tantas cosas que pasan.
Desde el primer día,
mi filosofía ha sido, si
somos capaces de hacer
pensar, reír o incluso
llorar con la información
que usted lee cada
semana
en
KCHN,
entonces
estamos
haciendo
nuestro
trabajo. La familia Arce
está orgulloso de nuestro
personal y el trabajo que
realizan, no sólo para
nosotros sino también
para
los
lectores.
Se
han
necesitado
a varias decenas de
personas durante los

As Kansas City Hispanic News celebrates its 20th Anniversary, Joe and Ramona
Arce, owners of the publication, want to give a huge thank you to all the loyal
readers, advertisers and all the individuals who helped to bring KCHN to this
milestone. “We couldn’t have done this without them … there are too many
people to mention by name,” said Joe Arce.
Mientras Kansas City Hispanic News celebra su 20avo Aniversario, Joe y Ramona
Arce, propietarios de la publicación, quieren dar un enorme gracias a los fieles
lectores, anunciantes y todas las personas que ayudaron a traer a KCHN a este
punto. "No podríamos haber hecho esto sin ellos ... hay demasiadas personas que
mencionar por su nombre," dijo Joe Arce.
then we are doing our
job. The Arce family
is proud of our staff
and the work they do,
not only for us but also
for the readers. It took
several dozens of people
over the last 20 years
to bring us to this point.
We couldn’t be happier
with the work they have
done on behalf of this
publication. So we thank
them as well.
You, our readers, are
important to us. You are
the ones that call, email
or text into our newsroom
letting us know that
there is a news story in
your community. There
are more new stories
in our growing Latino
community today then
there were 20 years ago.
The population of Latinos
in greater Kansas City
has grown to over 200
thousand today. That is
what keep us in business
and why we strive to
provide you with local,
in-depth news coverage.
I need to give a big thank
you to our advertisers
who help us pay our bills
and bring you KCHN
every Thursday.
It’s an honor to cover
news stories in my
hometown of Kansas City
as publisher of Kansas
City Hispanic News.
Ramona, my daughters
Lisa and Rachel and I
look forward to serving
you for years to come.
Our hope is that you
continue to read Kansas
City Hispanic News.
Millions of thanks to our
readers.
últimos 20 años para
llegar hasta este punto.
No podríamos estar
más contentos con el
trabajo que han hecho
en nombre de esta
publicación. Así que
les damos las gracias
también.
Ustedes,
nuestros
lectores, son importantes
para nosotros. Ustedes
son los que llaman, envían
correos electrónicos o de
texto a nuestra sala de
redacción para dejarnos
saber que hay una
noticia en su comunidad.
Hay más historias nuevas
en nuestra creciente
comunidad latina de hoy,
que las que había hace
20 años. La población
de latinos en Kansas
City ha crecido a más
de 200 mil habitantes
en la actualidad. Eso
es lo que nos mantiene
en el negocio y por eso
nos esforzamos para
ofrecerle
cobertura
de noticias locales en
profundidad.
Quiero
agradecer enormemente
a nuestros anunciantes,
quienes nos ayudan a
pagar nuestras facturas y
a traerle KCHN a usted
todos los jueves.
Es un honor el cubrir

natal,
Kansas
