Calling attention to the lack of fresh food in their lunches at Milwaukee Public Schools, student leaders have launched a “school lunch justice” campaign outside the district’s central offices.The students are part of Youth Empowered in the Struggle (YES), the multiracial youth arm of Voces de La Frontera, an advocacy organization for the rights of immigrants and workers. Villanueva said YES surveyed more than 1,000 MPS students and found that the quality of school lunch was the “most pressing issue” with the school environment.
