Kerry, Environmental and Occupational Health Program Associate, updated our group on the ongoing Baja farmworkers’ strikes.

From Jillian, Director of Education and Professional Development: The Association of Asian Pacific Community Health Organizations is beginning a webinar series this week entitled Practice Transformation.

Elodie, Health Network Associate sent us a link: Homero, a fellow Health Network Associate, “currently has a patient who is transgender, and I came across this and thought I would share! It's a short clip about the unique experiences intersex people face, and they talk about the difference between intersex and transgender. It's pretty interesting.”

Olivia, Health Network Associate, recommended a Radio Lab episode, which profiles Los Frikis, an 80s Cuban punk band whose members injected themselves with HIV-positive blood -- and inspired a movement. A fascinating story of youth, powerlessness, and illness.

On a lighter note, Tiffy, Communications & Graphic Designer, reminded us that next week is National Public Health Week!
