Reporteritas write about "real" experiences that young Latinas face, from breaking up with a boyfriend to deciding whether or not to get a tattoo. Coming soon to ĄSoy Unica! ĄSoy Latina!, read an inside account by Reporterita Alyssa Hernandez about her experiences at Junior ROTC camp. Do you know a young Latina who likes to write? Start thinking about who you will recommend to be a 2004 Reporterita! Recruiting starts later this fall.
