Excited to be participating in @IWMF's Hostile Environment and First Aid Training for journalists this week. As a woman photojournalist that has worked and traveled alone the majority of my career, I feel lucky to have been selected for this training. It's long overdue. #HEFAT

A Jesús Valencia le cancelaron su Medi-Cal por no renovarlo. Durante la pandemia, el gobierno de CA automáticamente lo renovo, pero el requisito regreso. Se estima que casi 3 millones podrían perder la cobertura, muchos siendo Latinos - bit.ly/3ZfsUzg via @radiobilingue

I met Lloyd Tennison while working w/@bjwolfson on my last reporting road trip for @KFFHealthNews. Tennison suffers from severe chronic back pain & when moved last year he assumed​ his​ Medi-Cal coverage would transfer seamlessly. It didn't. Read his story-bit.ly/3PTUxve
