CPR connects California reproductive justice issues on HuffPo-LA
December 7, 2009 by Admin
Camino client California Latinas for Reproductive Justice (CLRJ) debuts today on HuffPost-L.A. helping to launch the new site! CLRJ executive director takes a hard look at the local impact of national health care reform debates on women and immigrants, particularly California Latinas, in Stupak: The Worst Case Scenarios for Latinas. CLRJ and ACCESS/Women’s Health Coalition recently held a successful statewide call-in day of action to raise California voices to demand health care reform efforts include the needs of women and immigrant communities.
Last week, The Huffington Post launched HuffPost L.A., a new site designed to examine California and Los Angeles politics and culture. According to Arianna Huffington, “we intend to make HuffPost LA a must-click destination for engaged Angelenos looking to keep up with the latest on all things LA. And we’ll share the stories of the people whose lives are affected by the issues in the news: foreclosed homeowners, families battling wildfires in their neighborhoods or water main breaks in their front yards, parents searching for the best schools, and small business owners driving the city’s economic recovery.” Recent posts include those by San Francisco Mayor Gavin Newsom and other political, entertainment, and non profit figures in Los Angeles and California.
Congratulations CLRJ!
