Chaparral

Yeah.

So there's a church in, um, Chaparral, New Mexico.

Okay.

Uh, it's called blended nation.

Blended

nation.

They're up in Chaparral.

Yeah.

And all the early voting sites will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. And the government center on October 31st will be open 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. again so if you want the locations and the date and the times go to our website dacelections.com

so there's the anthony public library that's at 750 landers road in anthony new mexico we have the corbett center student union that's at 1600 international mall here in las cruces new mexico We have the Dona Ana Community College in Chaparral.

That is 755 Prescott Anthony Drive in Chaparral, New Mexico.

The Dona Ana Community College, the East Mesa campus.

That is at 2800 Sonoma Ranch Boulevard here in Las Cruces, New Mexico.

library which is at 1000 mcnutt road it was hit by a semi truck yeah and um and so we're working with the secretary of state to get it replaced we don't have a definitive date of when that's going to happen but there are some other nearby options again any of the early voting locations the nearest other drop box is chaparral at the dolores wright education center in chaparral Another nearby location that you can use one of the drop boxes is at Anthony City Hall Municipal Complex or at the Mesilla Town Hall.

And those are going to be the most near, the nearest drop boxes.

And of course, any of those early voting sites, I know Anthony's on there, Chaparral is on there, Sunland Park DACC is also on there, Mesilla Town Hall is there.

They might have, um, a beat up truck and paint on their jeans, and all of a sudden they're targets, uh, for ICE enforcement because they look like somebody that might be undocumented, and they think this administration's gone way too far.

Um, you know, we've had ICE try to go into our elementary schools in places like Chaparral, New Mexico, and, a- ask to speak to students.

Um, you know, students obviously go home and, and, and don't, uh, see their parents there that end up getting put in detention centers.

Uh, and, uh, and I think it's just completely gone too far.

Now back to Smart EQ.

Our final question comes from Catalina M. in Chaparral, New Mexico, who asks, "How are voices created?" Great question, Catalina.

Your voice starts with something you use every single moment you're awake and even while you're asleep.

Your lungs.

Angela, tell us a little bit about CAFE and your participation as a youth member, very strong youth component at Comunidades en Acción de Fe in the Doña Ana County and border region.

Yes, so I am part of this group in NMCAFE, which is based in Chaparral, New Mexico.

This group has many affiliations, and one of them is New Gen Hope, which is the youth group of this group.

organization, this group, I'm part of it, I've been a part of it for a couple of years now.

It's a great group where we welcome anyone and everyone, especially the youth.

And our goal here is to try and bring the best to our community since it's so small.

We need to bring more light into what Chaparral needs.

That sounds really exciting.
