Citizens challenge county to rethink juvenile justice (3/26/2021)
A community discussion on the Winona County justice system Wednesday gave a concerned public the chance to weigh in on the county’s consideration of building a facility to house juvenile offenders.
Those community members who attended the webcam-based talks hosted by nonprofit Engage Winona largely were of the opinion that the county should not invest in a juvenile detention or holding facility, but instead invest in social programs with the intent of preventing kids from committing crimes in the first place by improving their quality of life. At one point, activists were challenged by county officials claiming it wasn’t that simple.

WAPS equity group’s frustrations (1/13/2021)
Winona Area Public Schools’ (WAPS) Diversity and Equity Committee (DEC) is charged with making sure minority students have equitable access to education and helping the district fulfill its mission: “welcoming all learners.” Over the course of last year, several DEC members expressed frustration at how little progress they felt was being made. “It’s like we can’t move,” DEC member, Black parent, and former WAPS administrator Maurella Cunningham said. “It’s like when you’re in a dream, and you can’t accomplish things. It shouldn’t be that difficult.” District leaders said WAPS is making progress while also facing a pandemic that poses extreme challenges for educators.
