Carmen Barragan remembers the church bells ringing from her village\u2019s plaza in Michoacan, Mexico. She recalls looking out at the bustling courtyard filled with fruit vendors, children playing games and the verdant trees that engulf the plaza in her hometown of Cotija.<\/p>\n

That vibrancy is a standard that she hopes to see in outdoor gathering spaces in her neighborhood of Brighton Park on Chicago\u2019s Southwest Side. It led her to become a community organizer focused on promoting health through her neighborhood council.<\/p>\n

Her mission: create safe community hubs for her neighbors to use and come together.<\/p>\n
