The tenth anniversary of the ¡Soy Unica! ¡Soy Latina! rally, sponsored by Latinas Unidas, took place at the University of Rochester March 24. The annual event is designed to educate and empower Latina youth by celebrating their culture and looking toward their future. This year’s rally included parental workshops and youth workshops on nutrition, healthy living, self-esteem and wellness. The afternoon ended with a quinceañera fashion show.
