“I try to remember that, obviously, young people don't know everything. They're not going to be perfect, and this is a place for them to learn and grow. I also try to do my best to give them the advice that I wish I had gotten. For example, I grew up also being a woman, and this is a very male-dominated field. So, when I was 18, I pushed myself a lot harder physically and lifted things I shouldn't have or should have gotten help with. I did things that I wasn't totally comfortable with and should have stood my ground and asked somebody else to do it. So, I really do push the safety aspect—to keep their body safe, to speak up for themselves. Yes, try to push yourself, but don't do it too hard. And I think that I have a good balance with that. I actually had an intern who does not deal well with heights, and he thanked me a couple of weeks back for always finding ways to encourage him. Anytime I think of something that is height-related, but that maybe he would feel safe doing, I always try to bring it up to him, like, hey, I'm not pushing you, but do you want to try doing this to see if you can step outside of your comfort zone? The biggest thing that this internship teaches the younger people is agency and ownership. We are around and definitely there to help them, but we try to push them to make decisions as much as possible, and really take control of what they are doing.” -Amber Steinbeck, Master Electrician, California Center for the Arts, Escondido Read Amber’s full story at https://lnkd.in/gCTvi8R9

🎉 National Hispanic Heritage Month is here! 🎉 From September 15 to October 15, we honor and celebrate the rich histories, cultures, and contributions of Hispanic Americans. 🌎 What’s the difference between Hispanic, Latino/a, and Latinx/e? 🌎 Hispanic: Refers to people who speak Spanish or are descended from Spanish-speaking communities. Latino/a: Refers to people with ancestry in Latin America. Latinx/e: A non-binary form of Latino/a. It’s essential to recognize that people may understand and use these terms differently. While there isn’t a single "right" word, understanding their meaning and context helps foster inclusivity. 💬 💼 Representation Matters: Our CEO and senior leadership demonstrate our commitment to diversity with 48% Latinx/e representation. 🎶 How CCAE Celebrates Hispanic Culture 🎶 At CCAE, we embrace our vibrant community and celebrate through arts and culture! From our Música en la Plaza concert series to partnerships with the Tierra Caliente Academy, we proudly hosted events like El Grito de Independencia, Mexihco: The Journey Continues, and the San Diego Tijuana International Jazz Festival. 💀 Join us for our 29th Annual Día de los Muertos Festival 💀 On November 1 from 4:00 pm - 9:00 pm, come celebrate a rich cultural tradition with music, art, and community. Drop a ✋or comment below if we can expect to see you celebrating with us at Día de los Muertos! #HispanicHeritageMonth #RepresentationMatters #CCAEArts #InclusiveCommunity #DíaDeLosMuertos #CelebrateCulture #VisitEscondido #CityofEscondido #SanDiegoCounty #NorthCounty
