CHICAGO, IL — September 11, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Janie’s Art Journals has been selected as one of the artists presenting work at the Salud Chicago Inaugural Gala, an elegant evening supporting Salud Chicago’s nonprofit community mental health work, on Wednesday, September 16, at Chicago’s National Museum of Mexican Art.

For the occasion, Chicago paper artist and Janie’s Art Journals founder, Janie Flores, created a special series of five handmade art journals titled “Joy In Resilience.” The series celebrates the resilience of Chicago’s neighborhoods and communities as they navigate the daily challenges to their life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. 

The “Joy In Resilience” journals are stories made from the very materials and experiences of the communities they represent. Each journal in the series incorporates reclaimed materials, including protest signs and materials gathered from local communities and businesses, along with discarded papers, vintage materials, repurposed fabrics, and special touches of handmade art sourced from Oaxacan artisans in the Mexico Cultura y Orgullo collective. Together, these materials tell a story about the interconnectedness of immigrant life in Chicago and reflect lived realities shared by immigrant communities throughout the United States.

“This series celebrates the incredible resilience that exists within our communities,” said Flores. “Our communities continue to thrive amidst uncertainty, fear and struggle, because there is joy. There is family. There is culture. There is unity. There is hope. That is the joy in resilience.”

The concept is deeply aligned with the foundation of Janie’s Art Journals, a sustainable art initiative that transforms materials that might otherwise be discarded, including old books, cardboard packaging, vintage papers, reclaimed fabrics and other found materials, into unique handmade works of art.

Founded in 2023, Janie’s Art Journals emerged from Flores’ return to paper arts during a deeply personal period following the loss of her mother. What began as a creative outlet and a way to process grief has grown into an art initiative centered on storytelling, sustainability, connection, curiosity and healing.

“Joy In Resilience” builds on that philosophy by looking beyond the individual journal and asking a bigger question: What can discarded materials tell us about the people and communities that refuse to be discarded?

From protest signs to packaging from neighborhood businesses, every element carries a piece of a larger story. The journals become both art and archive by preserving fragments of community life while reimagining them into something new.

The opportunity to present “Joy In Resilience” at Salud Chicago’s Inaugural Gala is especially meaningful because the event will benefit their ongoing community mental health work while bringing together art, community and a shared commitment to making mental health resources more accessible in ways that are affirming and rooted in community.

About Janie’s Art Journals Janie’s Art Journals is a Chicago-based sustainable art initiative founded by paper artist Janie Flores in 2023. Each handmade journal is a unique work of art created by reimagining discarded book pages, cardboard packaging, vintage papers, reclaimed fabrics and other materials destined for the landfill.

A former award-winning publicist, radio host and conference speaker, Flores returned to paper arts as part of her own creative and healing journey. Today, Janie’s Art Journals brings together her love of storytelling, sustainability, art and community—one repurposed page at a time.

MIAMI, FL — September 11, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Edye and Vida y Salud, HITN Media’s preschool streaming and wellness platforms, present the townhall Los niños y el tiempo en pantalla (Children and Screen Time), a discussion in Spanish-language that addresses one of the most complex challenges of modern parenting: the relationship between preschoolers and electronic devices. The program will air on Sunday, September 13 at 8:00pm EDT/PDT on HITN TV and will be available for free on HITNGo so families can watch it whenever they need to.

Hosted by journalist Nathalia Ortiz, the town hall features a timely and much-needed conversation with two specialists—Dr. Nidsy Mejía Roque, a developmental and behavioral pediatrician and member of the American Board of Pediatrics, and Dr. Fernanda Lucchese-Lobato, a pediatric neuropsychologist—discussing expert testimonials and revealing in-person surveys. The program brings together insights from Dr. Thresia Gambon, spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP); Matías Dodel, PhD, professor in the Department of Social Sciences at the Catholic University of Uruguay; and Lina Acosta Sandaal, a development expert, psychotherapist, founder of Stop Parenting Alone, and director at KLA Academy in Miami. The surveys were conducted on the ground by parenting blogger Mariela Irala.

“This issue is urgent and highly relevant to our Latino audiences: the trends we see in the United States often set the tone globally, and parents need to be empowered with clear, evidence-based information that is guilt free,” said Guillermo Sierra, EVP and Head at HITN Media. “Both Vida y Salud and Edye, follow the American Academy of Pediatrics recommendations and continuously work alongside parents and caregivers to promote a healthy relationship with technology that prioritizes guidance, context, and content quality—without turning screens into a constant source of conflict.”

Los niños y el tiempo en pantalla offers constructive answers and avoids singling out parents while posing key questions: Is it just about screen time, or does content matter too? How do viewing habits and whether children are alone or accompanied shape their experience? What activities and relationships get displaced? When should adults step in, and how can limits be set without turning technology into a constant source of conflict? At the heart of the discussion are the American Academy of Pediatrics digital media guidelines, which invites us to reflect on the quality and context of the digital experience, rather than focusing solely over the number of minutes.

Los niños y el tiempo en pantalla empowers families to make informed decisions. The idea is clear: it’s not about being perfect parents, but about being present, staying informed, supporting children, and building a healthier relationship with technology—for both children and adults.

This is the first of many initiatives that HITN will roll out on this important topic. “We want to lead the movement, initiate a critically important conversation, and empower parents to manage this challenge for the benefit of their children,” added Sierra.

HITN Media and its brands Vida y Salud and Edye join forces to provide Spanish-speaking families with trusted content on health, wellness, and child development. Vida y Salud, through VidaySalud.com and as a programming block on HITN TV, offers articles, videos, medical resources, and segments that promote healthy habits and informed decisions. Edye, a Spanish-language preschool content platform, supports this mission with practical resources, quality entertainment, and evidence-based guidance that helps child development and encourages a healthier relationship with technology.

WASHINGTON, DC — September 11, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — HCN Global-La Red Hispana, the largest independent producer of educational and informational content for Spanish-language radio, print and digital platforms in the United States, is celebrating the expansion of its flagship program, Bienvenidos a América, to ViX and Univisión Puerto Rico-WSTE Channel 7, joining more than 80 radio and television affiliates across the United States.

Since its launch in 1997, Bienvenidos a América has informed and supported generations of Hispanic immigrants in the United States, becoming one of the longest-running Spanish-language programs dedicated to helping audiences understand the issues that directly affect their lives and communities.

“Bienvenidos a América has not only made history — it continues to make history. After 29 years of uninterrupted broadcasting, its arrival on ViX and Univision Puerto Rico marks another major milestone for HCN Global-La Red Hispana and demonstrates the enduring strength of a program that continues to earn the trust of generations of Latinos across the United States,” said Jeff Kline, President and Founder of HCN Global-La Red Hispana.

The expansion represents the natural evolution of a program that began on radio nearly three decades ago and has successfully adapted to changing technology and new media consumption habits while remaining true to its original mission of serving the Hispanic community.

“This growth reaffirms HCN Global-La Red Hispana’s commitment to delivering high-quality, culturally relevant content to Hispanic audiences wherever they are and on the platforms they use every day,” said Alison Rodden, CEO of HCN Global-La Red Hispana.

Throughout its history, Bienvenidos a América has distinguished itself by combining journalism, expert analysis, practical guidance and direct audience engagement. Immigration has long been at the heart of the program’s editorial mission, with coverage ranging from changes in immigration laws and policies to citizenship, naturalization, visas, deportations, and other issues affecting millions of immigrant families. The program also addresses a broader range of topics important to Hispanic communities, including health, education, civic engagement, financial literacy and community empowerment.

Currently hosted by journalist José López Zamorano, Bienvenidos a América regularly features immigration attorneys, policy experts and other specialists who break down the latest developments and answer questions directly from listeners and viewers.

In recent years, the program’s digital transformation has significantly expanded its original role as a trusted connection to the community.

Its traditional radio distribution has grown to include podcasts, live streaming, social media, television, digital video and on-demand content. Its expansion to ViX and Univision Puerto Rico-WSTE Channel 7, now brings the Bienvenidos a América brand into a new multiplatform era, extending its reach to younger audiences and to consumers who increasingly turn to streaming, digital video and social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube for news, information and community-focused content. You can watch the show on ViX by searching “Bienvenidos a América” in the ViX app or web platform.

Nearly three decades after its first broadcast, Bienvenidos a América continues to evolve while remaining anchored in the mission that has defined it since 1997: making complex issues easier to understand, providing practical and trustworthy information, and creating a platform where the voices and concerns of Hispanic communities are heard.

ESTERO, FL — September 9, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Visory Health, a top-three prescription discount card platform that helps Veterans, families, caregivers and underserved individuals afford their medications, has been named to Fast Company’s 2026 Best Workplaces for Innovators list. The annual ranking honors companies that demonstrate innovation at every level and create a workplace where all employees feel empowered to invent new ways of doing business.

At Visory Health, a good idea doesn’t need permission to travel because of its open, supportive and equal workplace structure. The health tech company doesn’t run on a rigid hierarchy of command. Instead, employees have direct access to leadership and to each other. Ideas are encouraged, and quickly judged on merit regardless of where they originated.

“As soon as someone on our team sees a better way to help a patient save money, we want to hear about it; that’s the kind of company we’ve built. It’s so critical for all Americans to save on their prescriptions,” said Susan Lang, founder and CEO of Visory Health.

The culture shows up in the results patients can feel. Millions of Americans use Visory Health to find the best price on their medication in seconds, with discounts of up to 80% at more than 37,000 locations nationwide. Team members who talk with patients provide real feedback to the product and leadership teams, so the platform keeps getting easier for patients to use.

Continuous innovation isn’t only given to Visory’s users. It’s a core pillar for the workplace, too. Company-wide meetings keep team members close to the impact they’re having on patients using the platform, while quarterly workshops cover everything from financial literacy to new tools the team adopts. Visory Health also invests deeply in its people, supporting continued growth in their professional skills through courses and workshops.

“Prescription affordability isn’t solved, so we can’t afford a culture where good ideas get stuck,” said Alexandra Robertson, Chief Growth Officer at Visory Health. “Being named to Fast Company’s list tells us we’ve built a team that keeps pushing on a problem that affects too many households.”

The honor marks Visory Health’s second recognition from Fast Company, following its inclusion on the 2024 Brands That Matter list. Earlier this year, the company won bronze at the 2026 Digital Health Awards for its mobile app, and earned a spot on the 2025 Inc. Best in Business list in the “Best Social Good” category. Visory has also been named a Modern Healthcare Best in Business honoree and is a four-time Inc. 5000 company.

MIAMI, FL — September 9, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — Following his visit to Miami during eMerge Americas last May, where César Caballero, Coordinator of Gateway Summit, promoted the transatlantic bridge connecting South Florida’s tech hub with Málaga’s innovation center, all eyes are now on the upcoming edition of the summit. The event will take place on October 1 and 2 at the Málaga Cruise Terminal.

In this exclusive interview with Hispanic Target Magazine, César Caballero reveals key details of a summit that aims to do far more than gather technology leaders: its goal is to generate concrete connections between entrepreneurs, investors, corporations, and innovation ecosystems on both sides of the Atlantic.

Nancy Clara: César, back in May you visited Miami during eMerge Americas to build bridges between South Florida’s tech ecosystem and Europe. How was Málaga’s pitch as a rising hub for capital and innovation received by the American market, and what key partnerships are you bringing back from that trip? 

César Caballero: The reception was extraordinarily positive. What we noticed in Miami is a massive interest in discovering new innovation hubs outside traditional markets. Málaga sparked tremendous curiosity due to its blend of talent, high quality of life, international connectivity, and a business ecosystem that has matured rapidly in recent years.

During eMerge Americas, we held meetings with venture capital funds, tech corporations, accelerators, and institutions that view Málaga as a natural gateway to the European market. That was precisely our goal: to demonstrate that Gateway Summit is not just an event, but a platform designed to create real connections between both continents.

We are returning with strategic collaboration agreements, new international partners, and, above all, commitments from numerous U.S. and Latin American investors and companies who will join us in Málaga this October to explore joint investment, expansion, and innovation opportunities.

NC: Gateway Summit stands out for its disruptive, airport-inspired concept featuring spaces like the “Pitching Runway” and “Takeoff Talks.” How is the agenda structured for this upcoming October edition, and what are the main thematic priorities? 

CC: From the very beginning, we wanted to break away from the traditional conference format. The airport concept reflects our core philosophy: Gateway Summit is a connecting hub where ideas take flight, capital meets high-impact projects, and connections turn into real opportunities.

That is why this edition’s agenda balances top-tier content, investment, networking, and immersive experiences. In addition to keynotes and panel discussions, we are featuring formats like the Pitching Runway, where 10 finalist startups will pitch directly to investors, alongside specialized workshops, deal-making meetings, dynamic activities, and an Experience Zone where attendees can engage directly with innovation through live demos and applied technologies.

Thematically, we are focusing on the major tech trends driving the global landscape: Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, FinTech, EdTech, HealthTech, SpaceTech, Smart Cities, Connected Mobility, Tokenization, Bitcoin, Real Estate, Tourism, and Impact Investing, among others.

Investment will play a particularly central role. Among our new formats, we are launching an initiative bringing together around 20 investors to build a live, practical guide on how startups are evaluated and how investment decisions are made—sharing criteria and decision-making processes that usually happen behind closed doors.

Ultimately, we want Gateway to empower attendees to do three things: understand current market trends, connect with the leaders driving them, and unlock tangible business opportunities through those connections.

NC: At Hispanic Target, we place great emphasis on leaders who move the needle in the market. What exciting highlights or prominent profiles can we expect from this year’s international lineup of speakers and investors? 

CC: We are building a highly cross-functional lineup because we want Gateway to be a meeting point for those developing technology, those implementing it, and those deciding where to allocate capital.

We can already announce several key names. For instance, we will feature executives from companies like Mastercard, Renault, and Indra to discuss connected vehicles and the future of mobility; we will cover tokenization and digital assets; and we will hold targeted sessions on how technology is revolutionizing healthcare (with Quirón), education, smart cities, and the space industry (with PLD Space).

Additionally, Metricool will address the practical application of AI and automated workflows, while Markus Gotthard will deliver a keynote on how drones, AI, and energy resilience are transforming global security.

Across various panels, we will also feature representatives from leading firms such as Cisco, Reental, and Bolt, with more announcements coming regularly.

Investment remains one of our primary pillars. We are gathering angel investors, venture capital funds, and family offices who will actively participate across multiple formats throughout the Summit. There will be strong representation from the United States, Latin America, and Europe, reinforcing the transatlantic bridge we are committed to building. Over the coming weeks, we will reveal new speaker additions that will add immense value for all participants.

NC: For companies, investment funds, and founders among our audience in the U.S. and Latin America looking at global expansion: Who is this summit specifically tailored for, and how can they participate in deal-making sessions? 

CC: Gateway Summit is specifically engineered to bring together the key pieces that turn innovation into sustainable business: startups and scaleups, global corporations, venture capital funds, angel investors, family offices, institutions, universities, tech hubs, and growth-minded companies seeking new expansion avenues.

For someone traveling from the U.S. or Latin America, Gateway serves as a highly concentrated entry point into the Spanish and broader European ecosystems.

Investors won’t just sit and listen to speeches; they can discover high-potential deals via the Pitching Runway, evaluate curated startups, participate in dedicated investment rooms, and arrange targeted one-on-one meetings with founders and executives.

Likewise, corporations can leverage Gateway to source cutting-edge technologies and identify potential partners, while founders can connect directly with investors, prospective clients, and strategic allies to scale their operations.

Furthermore, we are utilizing advanced networking and matchmaking tools so participants can arrange key meetings well before stepping foot at the Summit. We want to remove the randomness from networking and ensure the right decision-makers connect seamlessly.

For us, the key question at the end of Gateway shouldn’t be “Which presentation did you like best?” but rather “Who did you meet, and what deals will follow from that meeting?” That is the exact ROI we aim to deliver for anyone crossing the Atlantic to join us in Málaga.

NC: Beyond traditional conference sessions, today’s industry leaders demand practical, actionable learning. What specialized seminars, immersive workshops, and technology transfer labs can attendees expect? 

CC: This is one of the areas we are reinforcing most heavily this year. We don’t want Gateway to be just a place to hear about what’s happening—we want participants to understand how it’s done, test it out, and take home actionable insights.

One of our most unique formats centers around venture funding. Led by Iván García Berjano, we are gathering approximately 20 investors to construct a live, practical masterclass on startup investing. The goal is to demystify the investment “black box” by openly discussing what investors look for, the critical questions they ask, green flags, red flags, and the deciding factors behind funding choices.

We will also host highly practical sessions, such as Reental’s workshop focused on making alternative investments accessible, and “Tres en Forma”—a dynamic masterclass featuring three of Spain’s most renowned investors: Jesús Alonso Gallo, Rodolfo Carpintier, and Néstor Salvador Boichenco, tailored toward business growth and scaleup strategy.

We are taking this hands-on philosophy beyond the stage as well. Our interactive Experience Zone will feature live tech demonstrations, Web3/gaming showcases, and immersive experiences, allowing attendees to see and test emerging innovations firsthand.

In summary, Gateway Summit 2026 operates across three core dimensions: understanding industry trends, mastering practical implementation, and experiencing innovation firsthand. That powerful combination of knowledge, action, and strategic networking is our defining value proposition.

NEW YORK, NY — September 9, 2026 — (NOTICIAS NEWSWIRE) — When it comes to stroke, time matters. Recognizing the warning signs and calling 911 quickly can help with receiving time-sensitive, life-saving treatment. Recovery should begin early, too.

Having a stroke can divide life into a stark before and after, affecting many aspects of daily life. While it’s easy to focus on the things a stroke can take away, it’s important to remember there’s life after stroke. Recovery isn’t just about relearning skills. It’s about adapting to new challenges, finding purpose in a different reality and continuing to move forward.

Navigating the aftermath of a stroke means balancing short-term and long-term plans. Once medically stable, rehabilitation should ideally begin within 48 hours, according to the 2026 Guideline for Adult Stroke Rehabilitation and Recovery from the American Stroke Association. Recovery doesn’t have a fixed end. Meaningful progress can continue for months or years after survivors leave the hospital or complete formal therapy.

“Stroke rehabilitation is complicated,” said Lorie Gage Richards, Ph.D., FAHA, volunteer chair of the new guideline, associate professor at the University of Utah and an occupational therapist. “Each person faces a different set of challenges and care should be personalized to fit each person’s needs. The goal is to help individuals gain as much independence as possible to perform everyday activities while improving their overall quality of life.”

Approximately 800,000 people have a stroke each year in the U.S, according to the American Heart Association’s 2026 Heart Disease and Stroke Statistics. Whether you’re navigating recovery yourself or supporting someone you love, connecting with a coordinated healthcare team is an important first step. Ask about a comprehensive assessment, develop a rehabilitation plan based on what matters to you and set small, achievable goals throughout recovery.

Building Skills and Independence

After a stroke, familiar parts of a daily routine may take more effort or require a new approach. A rehabilitation team can assess how stroke has affected movement, communication, thinking, vision, hearing and other abilities then develop a plan based on individual needs and goals.

Recovery doesn’t look the same for everyone. For one person, a meaningful goal may be dressing independently. For others, it could be returning to work, driving safely or participating in favorite activities. Start with manageable goals, evaluate progress and reassess the plan as needs change.

Understanding the Invisible Impacts

Some of the most challenging parts of recovery may be the ones others can’t see. For instance, you might lose confidence or sense of identity, have trouble concentrating or experience anxiety or depression. Along with mental and emotional changes, you may notice ongoing physical symptoms like pain, difficulty sleeping, changes in sexual function or difficulty with bladder control.

Invisible challenges don’t have to stay that way. Ask your healthcare team to assess your physical and emotional health, including depression and anxiety, during the hospital stay and throughout recovery. Speaking up about new or changing symptoms can help identify appropriate treatment and support.

Navigating Changing Relationships

When you have a stroke, your life isn’t the only one that changes. A partner, parent or friend may suddenly take on new responsibilities, making honest conversations about support especially important.

Family responsibilities may also look different. Parenting young children, supporting loved ones or balancing work and family can bring new challenges during recovery. Give yourself permission to slow down, accept care and connect with the people who matter most.

Finding Purpose and Redefining Success

Recreation, hobbies, social connections and other meaningful activities are an important part of recovery and can help people regain confidence, participate in their communities and improve quality of life. That may mean returning to music, art, exercise or time with friends. It could also mean modifying favorite activities, discovering new interests or connecting with a support group.

Life after stroke may look different, but different doesn’t mean less meaningful. Recovery isn’t measured by how closely someone returns to who they were before. It’s about finding new ways to pursue what matters most and continuing to move forward.
