Serrano Meets with Bronx Students
This week, Congressman Serrano met in Washington with two groups of high school students from the Bronx. On Tuesday, he met with Bronx students in the World Vision Youth Empowerment Program and one student who was particpating in the Junior Statesman Foundation. On Thursday, he met with participants in the South Bronx Job Corps, a program that helps high school students graduate or attain their GEDs while also gaining work experience.
The students were in Washington for their annual lobbying day. "It is always a pleasure to meet young, hard-working students from the Bronx," said Serrano. "I am glad that they have the opportunity to come to Washington to see how our government works, and I am proud to have these students representing the Bronx."
