Brenda Rodriguez
Program Director
from Brenda...
I closely relate to the work of Accompaniment because as a first-generation Mexican American daughter I experienced first-hand all of the obstacles that my parents endured because they did not speak English. I learned to help them overcome those obstacles by learning Spanish and English fluently and speaking up for them when their voices weren’t heard or acknowledged. I began my journey at Taller de José in August of 2016, and since then, I have learned that our clients face the same obstacles that my parents once did. It has been a true honor to advocate for our clients when navigating these complex systems.
