In this episode of "Tiempo," we'll talk to a trailblazing Latina and current commissioner of the New York State Division of Criminal Justice Services Rossana Rosado.
Rosado is also the former New York Secretary of State and previously, the first woman editor-in-chief, CEO and publisher of "El Diario," the country's largest Spanish-language newspaper.

We will also focus on education and discuss several school mentoring programs in the Uniondale Union Free School District on Long Island. The school district has a very large Latino student body. To help Hispanic students there, the district has implemented programs like "Hermanos Unidos" and "The New York State Latina Mentoring Initiative.
" Their mission is to create and support one-to-one mentoring relationships to open doors for youth, foster leadership skills, and prepare students for college.
