Last update: 16 minutes ago

Arts & Community: UrbanTheater Company co-founder Ivan Vega, who helped bring Puerto Rican stories to Chicago stages, received the 2026 Leaders for a New Chicago Award—$50,000 for him and $25,000 for his nonprofit—highlighting how theater can build belonging, including ties to LGBTQ+ community. Disaster Recovery: Gov. Jenniffer González-Colón announced FEMA obligated $87.1M for 47 Puerto Rico reconstruction projects, including $38.0M for PREPA street-light modernization and $9.2M for permanent work at the Punta Santiago Pier in Humacao. Health & Daily Life: A pediatric guide urges families to protect kids during water shortages as drought pressures grow. Culture & Reading: A Hispanic Heritage Month roundup spotlights notable works by Hispanic authors, framing literature as “home” beyond the calendar. Local Business & Tech: Puerto Rico SMEs are adopting basic AI to improve operations, mostly using it for simple questions and research rather than full automation.
