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.
