English: In the beginning of the twentieth century, during a time of hardship and extreme poverty, many Puerto Ricans migrated to the larger coastal cities on the Island in search of employment and a better life. In the process of laying a solid foundation for their homes and families, these people gave rise to a number of close-knit communities; they established the precedent so that others in similar situations would have at the very least a glimmer of hope for a brighter future for themselves and their families. — The Caño Martín Peña Community Land Trust is Struggling to Survive, extract by María E. Hernández-Torrales, member of the Board of Trustees of the Fideicomiso de la Tierra del Caño Martín Peña.
