Arizona Western College students David Valdez and Angelica Albarran host Siendo Primero on KOFA Border Radio.

The Siendo Primero program is back on Border Radio with a new format. Previously, we had Arizona Western College students sit down and share their stories as first-generation college students.

We filmed the students and posted the videos on YouTube. You can find those videos on kawc.org.

Now we’ll still continue to hear stories about the “first gen” experiences but we will include music and also focus future episodes on specific topics including mental health and wellness.

Join hosts Angelica Albarran and David Valdez for the Spanish-language program Fridays on KOFA Border Radio at 11 a.m.
