Congresswoman Lucille Roybal-Allard urged high school students participating in the Salesian Boys and Girls Club of Los Angeles' Adelante Leadership Summer Program to further their education as a critical means toward a better life.  During the 16-week program, the students take math and English classes to help prepare them for admission to a University of California campus. The program is the brain child of Mr. Angel Obregon, Vice President of Government Relations at AltaMed, and operates in partnership with the University of California and the Salesian Boys and Girls Club of Los Angeles.  Following the discussion, the group presented the congresswoman with a plaque to thank her for her ongoing support of local youth.
