Many Yale SOM students build bridges to their neighbors in New Haven by pitching in with a variety of local organizations and nonprofits.

In March 2020, Bruni Pizarro watched from her office at New Haven’s Junta for Progressive Action as the world began locking down.
“Everything was unfolding in China, and then in Italy, and I knew it was just a matter of time until it was here,” says Pizarro, executive director of Junta, New Haven’s oldest Latinx-led social services agency, located in the Fair Haven neighborhood.
Pizarro, a 2019 graduate of the Yale School of the Environment, was new on the job and in the midst of working with the City of New Haven to resettle evacuees from recent earthquakes in Puerto Rico. As the COVID-19 pandemic spread, Pizarro knew her organization had to pivot, and quickly.
