Editor’s Note: KQED produces ouRXperience, a blog from community correspondents, to enrich coverage of health issues across California.
Recently, ouRXperience featured posts from four California communities:
- Patricia Carrillo in Salinas wrote about local reaction to the lawsuit challenging the state's approval of the fumigant methyl iodide to use on strawberry crops.
- From Wilmington, Anabell Romero, described how community members are contributing to the Master Plan for the Harbor-UCLA Medical Center renovation.
- Changvang Her told about the challenges of providing mental health care in the Merced Hmong community where "mental health" translates to "damaged brain."
- and from San Bernardino, Bobbi Albano brought us the story of a free dental clinic and how one man got the help he needed.
