I’m also passionate about making Bay Area history and culture more accessible to a broad public. • I’ve been a journalist for most of my life, starting in high school with The Franklin Press in Los Angeles, where I grew up. While earning my first degree in English at UC Berkeley, I got my start in public radio at KALX-FM. After completing a second degree in journalism at Cal, I landed my first professional job at Marketplace, then moved on to KPCC (now LAist), and then KQED, where I hosted The California Report for more than seven years. • My reporting has appeared on NPR, The World, WBUR’s \u003ci>Here & Now\u003c/i>, and the BBC. I also guest host for KQED’s \u003ci>Forum\u003c/i>, as well as the Commonwealth Club in San Francisco. • I speak periodically on media, democracy and technology issues, and do voiceover work for documentaries and educational video projects. • Outside of the studio, you'll find me hiking Bay Area trails and whipping up Insta-ready meals in my kitchen. • I do not accept gifts, money, or favors from anyone connected to my reporting, I don't pay people for information, and I do not support or donate to political causes. • I strive to treat the people I report on with fairness, honesty, and respect. I also recognize there are often multiple sides to a story and work to verify information through multiple sources and documentation. If I get something wrong, I correct it.",

The association's governing council voted 65 to 35 percent against the policy's adoption, although there was a strong showing of support by some APHA members who held a rally and wore pins for the policy at the conference, according to Bilick.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The fact that they're not passing this statement that directly impacts black and brown communities sends a message that they're not willing to stand up for those communities,\" Bilick said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, the APHA’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.publichealthnewswire.org/?p=19468\">Joint Policy Committee\u003c/a> reviews proposed policy statements and makes recommendations to the governing council prior to the vote to determine if the statement is evidence-based and meets the \u003ca href=\"https://www.apha.org/~/media/files/pdf/policy/authorinstructions_2017.ashx\">submission guidelines\u003c/a>. The committee advised against the council’s adoption of this policy with a call for substantive improvement.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These are people’s bodies, that’s our jurisdiction,” said Rupa Marya, faculty in the division of hospital medicine at UCSF and organizer with the \u003ca href=\"http://www.donoharmcoalition.org\">Do No Harm Coalition\u003c/a>. “I think that in general the governing bodies of the APHA are largely white, and they’re largely not affected by police violence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The \u003ca href=\"https://endpoliceviolence.squarespace.com/the-statement/\">“Law Enforcement Violence as a Public Health Issue” policy statement\u003c/a> has since been removed from the association's website.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"In this moment, I think it's really important that, as the largest public health organization, APHA takes a bold stand and doesn't shy away from publicly condemning police violence,\" Bilick said. \"If the biggest public health org in the country takes a stand on it, that will prompt more research, more journal articles, more responses within public health to police violence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A rewritten version of the statement is slated to be presented in fall 2018, according to Megan Lowry, a spokeswoman for the association.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Though the APHA’s policy statements shape the association’s stance on a wide range of public health topics, it \u003ca href=\"http://www.publichealthnewswire.org/?p=19468\">does not necessarily mean the APHA is against the topic or aim\u003c/a> of a proposal that is not adopted.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have policy statements on the books that allow us to address many aspects of this issue,” the association’s executive director, Georges Benjamin, said in an interview with \u003ca href=\"http://thenationshealth.aphapublications.org/site/misc/PoliceViolencePublicHealth.xhtml\">The Nation’s Health\u003c/a>. “Police violence is absolutely a public health issue that we have been working on for many years and one we will continue to work on.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The association is convening a work group of members to create a new policy statement about the issue for a future vote that meets the evidence-based standard in order to pass, \u003ca href=\"http://thenationshealth.aphapublications.org/site/misc/PoliceViolencePublicHealth.xhtml\">according to Benjamin\u003c/a>. He said the APHA \"will continue to speak out and work to protect the public from police violence.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the meantime, there are not enough studies addressing the relationship of police interactions to people’s health or exploring prevention techniques, according to Rhea Boyd, a pediatrician who practices in Palo Alto. But she hopes the health community will still take action based on the evidence that is available.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t need data to start doing things about it,” Boyd said. “I think we can use data that we already know about exposures to violence. We can use data that we already know about racial disparities in police interactions and just put two and two together and start putting together initiatives to actually start addressing it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11639683\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 436px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11639683\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"436\" height=\"758\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot.jpg 436w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot-160x278.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot-240x417.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/Rhea20Boyd27s20Head20Shot-375x652.jpg 375w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 436px) 100vw, 436px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Rhea Boyd is a pediatrician in Palo Alto. \u003ccite>(Courtesy of Rhea Boyd)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Local Stance?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On a local level, Boyd and other health advocates penned a letter to the San Francisco Police Commission to urge the city to create a coordinated effort to address all acts of violence, including police violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think there’s a lot of city agencies that would benefit from the conversation,” Boyd said. “Given the stature of the health department and the police department, they have the power to do more and to convene meetings to make a prioritized list of how we might go about this.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This led to the Police Commission encouraging then-Mayor Ed Lee to facilitate a wraparound effort of the Police Department, Police Commission, Department of Children, Youth and Families, Department of Public Health and other city agencies to create a better public health response to violence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Without a meaningful public health response that intervenes in the cycle of violence, too many of our communities will continue to experience the predictable, poor outcomes that come from sustained exposure to chronic adversity and trauma,” the \u003ca href=\"http://sfmayor.org/sites/default/files/FileCenter/Documents/484-Suhr%20_%20Loftus%20Letter1.pdf\">letter\u003c/a> said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It was in December 2015 that SFPD officers \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/02/11/medical-examiners-report-on-mario-woods-shooting-released/\">shot and killed Mario Woods\u003c/a> in the Bayview district. His death spurred an uprising of community action, use-of-force reforms and a Justice Department review of the police department.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The SFPD also adopted a \u003ca href=\"http://sanfranciscopolice.org/sites/default/files/Documents/PoliceDocuments/DepartmentGeneralOrders/sfpd-dgo-5.21-cit.pdf\">memorandum\u003c/a> with the Department of Public Health for a coordinated approach when dealing with incidents that involve people in crisis, creating a \u003ca href=\"https://sanfranciscopolice.org/crisis-intervention-team\">Crisis Intervention Team\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Police commissioner Joe Marshall said he is not aware of any meeting between the agencies listed in the letter to address the topic at hand, though the creation of the CIT shows effort.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the department has reached out in the spirit of what they suggested in the letter to create a spirit of practices that are actually put in place by using the best in public health thinking,” Marshall said. “Those things that have happened are major and have gone way beyond what was suggested in that letter because they've now become either policy or practice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While Boyd said the CIT and joint trainings are a step in the right direction, the effort her group hoped for hasn’t come to fruition when specifically addressing police encounters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those programs can be expanded, not just to individuals who have mental illness but to everyone, really,” Boyd said. “If you would rather, when a crisis shows up in your home, have a neighbor respond to your crisis rather than an armed, militarized officer, then I think that needs to be a new service line that a collaboration between our health departments and our police departments could provide.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The San Francisco Public Health Department declined to comment about police violence for this article.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11638142\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11638142\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-800x533.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-160x107.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-1920x1280.jpg 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-1180x787.jpg 1180w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-960x640.jpg 960w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-240x160.jpg 240w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-375x250.jpg 375w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2017/12/IMG_0021-520x347.jpg 520w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gwen Woods is embraced on Dec. 2, 2017, the second anniversary of her son's death in San Francisco. \u003ccite>(Audrey Garces/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A Long-Term and Pervasive Impact\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asantewaa Boykin, a registered nurse and co-founder of \u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2017/09/22/meet-the-people-mobilizing-against-white-supremacy-in-the-bay-area/\">the Anti Police-Terror Project,\u003c/a> recalls her earliest memory of the police.

Boykin described it as a multigenerational and multi-ethnic group of organizations and community members that is “unapologetically black-led.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It kind of started to feel like we were waiting for black folks to be murdered by police and then we were reacting to that murder, versus doing something that was sustainable,” Boykin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The coalition trains first responders to teach them how to treat injuries, conduct trauma-informed investigations and connect people with support and means of healing.

Until now, one of the few ways candidates would learn about contracting jobs was through job fairs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think for us, it’s meet them in the middle in terms of determining how is it that they can get connected to the tech economy.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This isn’t the first time Peninsula residents have pushed for big tech companies to hire more locals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last spring, when Amazon moved into East Palo Alto, the retail giant said there weren’t enough high-skilled residents to fill what’s called the “first source” rule, which requires companies to hire 30 percent of their employees from within the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Residents protested, and Amazon and the developer made a concession by partnering with the nonprofit \u003ca href=\"http://www.jobtrainworks.org/about-us/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">JobTrain\u003c/a>. The career counseling center now has an office on the Amazon campus, and provides job training, classes and resume building for community members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This employment center was kind of the catalyst in really trying to make a good-faith effort to the community to provide some support for people that were looking for work,” says Art Taylor, chief program officer of JobTrain.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>JobTrain is where Boyd learned about the option of going back to school to brush up his resume.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He’s now taking a web tech class taught through the nonprofit in conjunction with Salesforce.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If somebody will take a look at our capabilities, we will get jobs,” says Boyd. “Just having the expectation of being treated the same, let’s say, as other millennial resumes that are crossing the desk of hiring managers. This would change life from darkness to a sunlit day with hope in it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 10 months, Boyd will have a new certification — and renewed hope, he says, that this time around, someone on the other side of that online portal will give him a shot.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",
