April Monterrosa, the founder and publisher of the popular magazine “Live From the Southside,” visited KSAT on Monday to discuss her newsletter and all the events taking place on the South, West and East Sides.

House Resolution 86 mentions several contributions made to the local community by Monterrosa, including her effort “to be a positive role model and a source of encouragement to others,” creating a group “to empower, support, and educate women in an environment of mutual respect and acceptance” and promoting literacy among young people.
