Never Stop Grinding Impact (NSG Impact) is continuing its free “Grind for Growth” financial literacy summer series in partnership with Chase Bank, with the next workshop scheduled for Saturday, June 21, 2025, from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM. The event will be held at the NSG Boxing and Community Center, located at 898 W Rialto Ave, and will focus on improving credit and managing debt.
The series began on May 24, 2025, with the first workshop, “Credit 101: An Introduction to Credit,” which attracted 30 participants. The session provided a foundational understanding of credit and how to responsibly manage it. Participants learned about the importance of credit scores, how to establish credit, and the various factors that impact creditworthiness.
One key takeaway from the session was the discussion on how parents can help build their children's credit by adding them as secondary authorized users on their credit cards, allowing them to start building credit before they even reach adulthood.
"Some people are scared of getting a credit card because they don't want to go into debt," said Darious Harris, CEO of NSG Impact. "But
managing your money effectively is what determines your debt. Credit is a tool, not a burden, when you understand how to use it."
The second session, which will take place on June 21, 2025, is titled "Improving Credit and Managing Debt." This session will build on the knowledge from the first workshop, delving deeper into strategies for managing debt and further improving one’s credit.
“This workshop will help attendees understand how to take actionable steps to improve their credit scores and tackle outstanding debt,” said Harris. “We’ll also be discussing how people can avoid common mistakes that lead to debt, and the importance of maintaining a balanced financial portfolio.”
Jonathan Escobar, the Community Manager for Chase Bank in Rialto, has been instrumental in organizing and supporting these workshops. His ongoing partnership with NSG Impact has brought valuable financial education to the community, offering insights from Chase’s banking professionals at no cost to attendees.
The workshops are designed to engage and educate people of all ages, as evidenced by the diverse group of attendees at

- the first session. Tameka Grayson, NSG Impact’s Chief Operating Officer, noted that the environment was interactive and comfortable, encouraging participants to ask questions and engage in discussions about personal finances.
“The participants were highly engaged and asked a lot of questions,” Grayson said. “The real-world examples Jonathan used made it easy for everyone to understand the concepts. It was clear that people were grateful for the opportunity to learn.”
The “Grind for Growth” series includes two additional workshops, covering topics like

- School of Education, is scheduled for August 6.
The ceremony carried more than just excitement — it marked the start of real, meaningful partnerships built on purpose and potential. Residents arrived, waiting to find out who they would be paired with, which added to the anticipation.
Cheers followed each announcement as Alycandria Johnson, RUSD Teacher Residency Program Specialist, revealed the matches one by one. For many, it was the moment their teaching journey officially began — and for mentors, the start of a year of purposeful collaboration and growth.
“Match Day was a beautiful moment that brought months of planning, training, and recruitment to life,” said Johnson. “It marked the beginning of an innovative partnership with CSUSB designed to grow and retain excellent teachers in high-needs subject areas. There was something special about keeping an element of surprise as mentors and residents met for the first time. I’m especially grateful to our mentors who prepared themselves mentally and emotionally to take on such an important role.”
Residents in the program will spend the 2025–2026 school year embedded in RUSD classrooms while simultaneously completing their credential and master’s degree coursework. The model provides financial support, intensive mentorship, and integrated, equity-focused
money lessons (July 19th) and a business-focused session (August 16th). Attendees can register for the series on Eventbrite or sign up at the door on the day of each workshop.
“There's no cost to attend, and the knowledge provided by Chase Bank’s experts is invaluable,” Harris said. “A lot of people are paying for the same information elsewhere, but here, you can learn for free from a billion-dollar institution.”
If you missed the first session, you can still register to attend the forthcoming sessions. For more details or to register for upcoming workshops, visit NSG Impact’s Eventbrite page.
training designed to equip new educators for long-term success.
The Teacher Residency Program is the newest arm of RUSD’s broader Teach Rialto initiative, which also includes a Career Technical Education (CTE) pathway for high school students and Project Impact, which supports classified staff — particularly men of color — on their journey to becoming credentialed teachers.
Launched through a grant from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing, the residency program aims to tackle teacher shortages, strengthen teacher preparation, and create a workforce that reflects the students it serves.
“The residency program is unlike anything I’ve experienced,” Johnson added. “We are deeply invested in each candidate, from the long recruitment process to the full year of clinical practice to supporting them as they transition into their classrooms. The road gets bumpy at times, but we’re figuring it out together with the District, our mentor teachers, the university partners, the residents, and support from the California Commission on Teacher Credentialing.”
With both the CSUSB and Alder GSE cohorts launching this fall, Rialto Unified is building a teacher residency model rooted in community, collaboration, and a long-term vision.

The San Bernardino City Council approved the city’s $348.7 million operating budget for Fiscal Year 2025-26 and the five-year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) through 2030 in a contentious meeting marked by talking over one another, disagreements, public outrage, and conflict of interest accusations.
The June 4 vote followed hours of heated debate, sparked first by Councilmember Theodore Sanchez’s lastminute recommendation to delay the hearing. Within minutes of speaking, Sanchez drew loud boos from the audience and was interrupted by shouts of "No!" led by former Councilwoman Kimberly Calvin and echoed by several dozen residents.
“The State mandates that we have one public hearing during a regularly scheduled meeting, which would be this. Then we could schedule and continue this in a special meeting,” Sanchez said. He cited unresolved staff concerns and major cuts to key services, including homeless encampment cleanups and tree removal. But the crowd was not having it. Mayor Helen Tran had to call for order.
Ultimately, Sanchez’s motion to delay was seconded by Councilmember Fred Shorett but failed. The audience erupted in laughter after Sanchez’s motion was voted down.
Council Spars Over Transparency
Councilmember Dr. Treasure Ortiz challenged Sanchez’s timing and commitment to transparency, stating, “We’ve had two workshops, and Councilwoman Knaus was diligent in going department by department asking questions. If you have questions about the budget Councilman Sanchez,
they should be asked in front of the public here tonight.”
Interim City Manager Bill Gallardo, who will be replaced by Eric Levitt on August 4, presented the budget. He said, “We have presented a balanced general fund budget. We have a recommendation to draw down reserves to invest in community infrastructure.”
Where the $348.7 Million Budget Is Going
The approved FY 2025-26 budget allocates:
$125.1 million to the General Fund
$84.7 million for Special Revenue Funds
$40.1 million for Internal Service Funds
$35.7 million for Enterprise Funds
$34.2 million for Capital Project Funds
$14.9 million for Debt Service Funds
$13.9 million for Permanent and Trust Funds
These figures are intended to support core services such as public safety, infrastructure, and community services, while also funding major capital improvements.
Legal Services: BB&K Under Scrutiny
Public frustration grew during discussions on skyrocketing legal expenses—most notably the $2.5 million projected to be paid to law firm Best Best & Krieger (BB&K), which has held the city attorney contract since August 1st, 2018.
Ortiz disclosed that BB&K was charging the city roughly $211,000 per month. She added, “The city is spending nearly half a million dollars a month on legal services between BB&K and other outside attorneys—and that doesn’t include settlements.”
When Ortiz asked BB&K Attorney Albert Maldonado what the extra charges covered, he
cited labor and employment law, Prop 218, economic development, bankruptcy work, “and a number of other things that require expertise and a specialty.”
“Why are we being charged $1.5 million above our retainer?” Ortiz pressed.
Ortiz continued, “The cost we're paying BB&K sounds like nothing when you say one percent. But one percent of hundreds of millions is a lot.
And for one firm to go unchecked and question the council when we ask questions is irresponsible.”
Maldonado pushed back by comparing BB&K’s current cost to previous firms, citing legal costs between $6.5 million and $8.8 million from 2015–2018.
Councilman Sanchez then spoke in response to Ortiz. He provided a hypothetical saying, “Let’s say, there is an elected official who decides to sue the city for $2 million and that individual goes into litigation with the city. Could that cost the city $100,000 in legal fees to fight?”
Sanchez was seemingly referring to Councilwoman Dr. Treasure Ortiz who recently sued the city, alleging police illegally ran her name through criminal databases and sought to sway the 2024 campaign. Ultimately, the claim was denied.
Sanchez continued, “I know we have in the past litigated cases in defense of the city that have cost us anywhere between $100,000–$300,000 dollars. These things happen and we get sued. In order to aggressively fight for the interest of the city, we have to be able to litigate this in a courtroom. That costs the city money.”

Op-Eds
The Unrepresented Truth of Gender Equality
By Fernanda Ramirez, Arroyo Valley High School Student
Gender equality is something that is most of the time mistaken for thinking that a certain gender is better than the other. Gender equality is a big problem that society has faced for many years, and it faces society today. Gender equality relates a lot to feminism, and feminism is the belief that both women and men are created equal.
But unfortunately, people misinterpret it by thinking that women are better than men, which is not the case; women are not better than men, and men are not better than women. Both genders need each other equally because there are many things that women can do but men can't, and there are many things men can do but women can’t. The thought of women and men being equal is nice, and yes, we even each other out—we are like a balancing scale. Women and men need each other in different ways. Not only do men need women, but women also need men, and it is not a bad thing to depend on each other because that is what we were meant for.
Being a woman is a good thing, and being a man is a good thing; we need each other to survive. Neither men nor women can reproduce alone; both genders are needed to create life. In addition to living a happy life, you need parent figures in your life—coincidentally, and most of the time, they are a man and a woman. Women and men are equal to each other; we are like Yin and Yang. It's a representation of who we are as humans, and re-
gardless of gender, everyone should be able to decide what to do with their own lives. Gender is unimportant when it comes to basic human rights, opportunities, and responsibilities.
All men and women were meant to work together to make the world a better place, and putting each other down only makes things worse. When mentioning “putting each other down,” it means not giving basic human rights to each gender—for example, not giving women equal pay, discriminatory laws against women, lack of representation, etc. Though many issues follow women, there are also issues that men go through that are not represented enough—for example, men’s sexual assault is not represented, disrespect is not represented, etc. Many issues follow each gender, and all of those different things affect each gender in its own way.
So, how can we fix these problems? It is important to know that the first step to solving a problem is recognizing we have one. The problem we have now is that we believe one gender is greater than the other. It is known that some men believe women are better than men, and others believe that men are better than women. So, in the end, the only way to solve this problem is to understand that neither gender is better than the other; both genders should be able to work together because that is what we are meant for. Both genders are perfect in their own way, and both genders are needed by one another. Even though neither gender has the same capacities as the other, they still need each other to survive.
Our Police and State’s Rights in the Face of the Immigrant Witch-Hunt
By Matthew Leon, Arroyo Valley High School Student
Martin Niemöller, a poet and opponent of the Nazi regime during World War II, wrote in a poem:
“Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— / Because I was not a Jew. / Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.”
The recent witch-hunting of illegal immigrants no doubt resonates with most of us Inland Empire residents. A study conducted by UC Riverside reveals that one in five of us are immigrants, and regardless of an individual’s stance on whether or not immigration is beneficial, the administration’s actions and fear-mongering of everyday people should be condemned.
President Trump, on April 28, consolidated his power using yet another executive order against so-called “dangerous illegal aliens,” which allowed ICE to establish a “naughty list” of sanctuary cities (cities which apparently do not currently do everything in their power to remove immigrants) and coerce them into complying with ICE’s policies using threats to funding. Complying with these regulations would mean sheriffs have to routinely hold prisoners with questionable citizenship status for ICE inspections.
The order also “ensures illegal aliens are not being favored over American citizens by directing the Attorney General to address state or local laws that unlawfully prioritize aliens.”
With this, our very own police departments will become mere outposts for the administration's anti-immigration policies. And it must be recalled that the administration does not exactly have a reputation
for correctly identifying illegal immigrants. Andry José Hernandez, a gay Salvadoran hairstylist who sought asylum in the U.S., was allegedly deported because his tattoos—particularly a crown tattoo with his parents’ names on it—had a vague resemblance to those of Salvadoran gang Tren de Aragua members. This is just one man in a list of people wrongly sent to a Salvadoran prison without due process, especially considering the ongoing Abrego Garcia case. Is this really the standard we want our states to be coerced into cooperating with? The Salvadoran government and President Trump are abusing human rights loopholes to create a system where they can deport anybody even suspected of a certain heritage and send them elsewhere—places not subject to the U.S. Constitution.
Is this what we want our police departments to have to report to and work under? More importantly, does this blatant profiling sound like any other regime? It must be remembered: Auschwitz, the most notorious and largest concentration camp, was intentionally not built on German land.
If this is happening to Salvadoran immigrants on the basis that they may be related to gangs, what will be coming to Mexican Americans? What camps will they be sent to, considering that President Trump has squandered our partnership with the Mexican government?
Our people should refuse to work with such policies. Our police departments becoming puppets for the administration is only a step toward the Trump administration acquiring full power over the public. This is a slippery slope that most should want to stay far, far away from.

Women of Hope Raise $81K to Help Children Succeed in School & Beyond
Community News
Proving that it takes a village, and that women are often its heart, more than 200 local businesswomen, community leaders and changemakers gathered on June 12 for the sixth annual Beauty, Bubbles & Bites, raising $81,600 to fund free after-school programs, literacy initiatives and scholarships for children living in affordable housing communities.
Hosted by the Hope through Housing Foundation and led by the dynamic volunteer group Women of Hope, the event transformed the Guardian Jet Center in Ontario into a celebration of culture, connection and cause.
With an Around the World theme, guests were treated to global cuisine, a signature cocktail and a showcase of everything women love, featuring beauty and health vendors –all in support of giving every child the chance to succeed.
One of the most memorable moments of the evening came from the Golden Butterflies, a group of young girls from Hope through Housing’s after-school program in San Bernardino who delivered a joyful and inspiring African dance performance.
“Beauty, Bubbles & Bites is a beautiful reminder of what’s possible when women come together with open hearts and a shared purpose,” said Alyssa Cotter, executive director of Hope through Housing. “We are so grateful for this incredible group of women who are collectively making a difference and impacting the lives of so many children.”
Guests participated in opportunity drawings, an extensive silent auction, wine pulls and a Sponsor a Child campaign, offering donors a meaningful way to support after-school enrichment that builds academic skills, confidence and college/career readiness.
Among the evening’s highlights was the story of Gracie, a 15-year-old entrepreneur and
A.B. Miller High Soars with Aviation Program Launching Student Pilots into Aerospace Careers
after-school program participant from Rancho Cucamonga who began a soap-making business with the support of her community. Her mother, Isabel, shared the impact the program has had on their lives.
“Because of the after-school program, we’ve had help with back-to-school shopping and Gracie has been able to start selling her soaps,” Isabel said.
“I’m proud of her. She’s learning how to manage money and believe in herself.”
The event also featured a heartfelt appearance by actress Gabrielle Walsh, who reflected on her own experience as a working single mother and the importance of supportive communities.
“As a single mom pursuing a career, I had to make sacrifices, mostly my time,” Walsh said.
“Looking back, I realize having support was a privilege. A community like Hope through Housing, where children feel seen and supported, is truly powerful.”
Since its inception, Women of Hope has raised more than $380,000, helping to expand Hope through Housing’s impact across the region.
“This is more than an event, it’s a shared purpose,” said Karen Scott, executive director of First 5 San Bernardino, a Hope through Housing board member and a Woman of Hope. “We know what’s possible when we come together for our children. We’re building a future that reflects the very best of who we are.”

A.B. Miller High School senior Jesse Cuba reached a major milestone in pursuit of his private pilot license, completing his first solo flight in a Cessna 152 at Cable Airport, successfully performing three takeoffs and landings in challenging, high-wind conditions.
Community News
From classroom simulations to real-world takeoffs, A.B. Miller High School’s career technical education (CTE) aviation program continues to soar, as students work toward earning their pilot’s licenses, complete major flight training milestones, and launch careers in the aerospace industry.
Senior Jesse Cuba is set to earn his private pilot license this summer after completing a major milestone: his first solo flight. Cuba would be the fourth A.B. Miller student in the last three years to secure a private pilot license the summer of their senior year.
The A.B. Miller aviation program is a two-year course offering pathways to several rewarding careers in aerospace. It serves as a flight training school and includes a pilot training class, an airline mechanic class, and a flight simulator lab.
Cuba completed his first solo flight in a Cessna 152 at Cable Airport on April 30, successfully performing three takeoffs and landings in challenging, high-wind conditions – after logging only 10 flight hours.
“I was so excited as I felt the plane lift off. It was a mix of nervousness, happiness, confidence, and a healthy amount of fear,” said Cuba, who served as president of A.B. Miller’s aviation club this year. “I felt welcomed up in the sky; I know it’s somewhere I belong.”
Cuba is now preparing for the next phase of training: post-solo maneuvers, including a crosscountry solo flight to San Diego. This summer, he will also begin an internship at Guardian Jet Center at Ontario International Airport, where he will gain hands-on experience fueling, cleaning, storing, and maintaining aircraft.
Earlier this school year, Cuba passed the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Private Pilot Certificate written exam, along with A.B. Miller junior Xavier Gonzalez and senior Christopher Hernandez. Gonzalez and Hernandez are both on track to complete their first solo flights this summer.
As current students continue to chart their paths in aviation, A.B. Miller Class of 2024 graduate Johnny Hortua is making his mark in the aerospace field after earning his commercial pilot’s license and instrument ratings.
“A.B. Miller aviation changed everything for me. It allowed me to mature much faster and see what working in the real world is like,” Hortua said. “The short time students spend in the program gives them a head start that affects the trajectory of their whole life.”
At 19 years old, Hortua is one of the program’s most advanced alumni, working at Lipson Aviation at Brackett Airport in Pomona as a flight and ground instructor for high-performance Cirrus and jet aircraft.
Hortua is also giving back to his community as a Young Eagles instructor, taking several A.B. Miller aviation students on their first flights – the same experience that solidified his passion for aviation.
“Seeing Johnny graduate and build a career in aviation is absolutely inspiring,” said A.B. Miller aviation instructor Jeff McGlocklin. “I have no other words to describe it other than proud. As a teacher, this is why we do it. Johnny is an excellent pilot, and it is incredible to see him as a product of this program.”

‘No Kings’ Protest in Redlands Draws 1,200 Against Trump and ICE, Defying Expectations
By Manny Sandoval
In a striking show of dissent, more than 1,200 demonstrators flooded Orange Street in downtown Redlands on Saturday morning to protest the Trump administration’s military parade, part of a national wave of “No Kings” demonstrations held in over 2,000 cities. The local turnout stunned residents and protestors alike, given Redlands’ reputation as a traditionally conservative community.
The protest—organized by the Redlands Area Democratic Club—ran from 10 AM to noon under a city-approved permit. Despite sweltering heat in the 90s, participants lined Orange Street from Redlands Boulevard to Citrus Avenue, chanting slogans, holding signs, and receiving steady support from hundreds of honking cars.
The phrase “No Kings” served as a pointed rebuke of President Donald Trump’s leadership, with demonstrators accusing him of overstepping presidential powers during his second term.
“You throw the National Guard and police at us—
we’re American and we stand for something,” said Alex Hernandez, who attended with her sister Janet from East Highlands. “We’re not going to bow down to you.”
Janet added, “We usually go out to L.A. protests, but this is our community. We heard there was going to be one at 10 AM and figured we’d check it out. We thought it would be just a couple people, but when we got here around 10:50, we were really surprised to see a huge turnout in Redlands. It touched us—it made us teary eyed.”
Los Angeles resident JD said the protest helped restore his sense of solidarity, “Sometimes you sit at home wondering if people are on your side. You don’t always see the evidence. But coming out and seeing all these people makes me feel like there are more of us than them. None of this is right—and it’s all stuff I’ve voted against my entire life.”
Local protestor Piper Smith said her family has been fighting for justice for generations. “I’ve been marching against this for 30-plus years. My parents marched, and my grandparents fought in wars against this. This is fighting against Nazis. Wake up, people.”
Angie Torres, a resident of San Bernardino, called for a major shift in national priorities. “We have a felon as a president and hardworking immigrants doing everything right,” she said. “Give immigrants resources.”
Throughout the protest, a volunteer was seen walking up and down Orange Street spraying demonstrators with water to keep them cool. Redlands Area Democratic Club President Lorraine Enriquez personally walked the protest route at noon, thanking participants for coming and urging them to clear out promptly. “If we want to coordinate another protest in the weeks to come, we need to clear out as fast as we can,” she told the crowd.
The Inland Empire saw additional “No Kings” protests on Saturday in Fontana, Riverside, Corona, and Rancho Cucamonga. In Redlands, no incidents were reported.
For many who came out, the peaceful protest was more than political—it was deeply personal, and a powerful reminder that resistance is not confined to major cities.
