"content": "\u003cp>The Alameda County Office of Education on Wednesday announced plans to provide timely COVID-19 testing for teachers and staff in the county's 18 K-12 districts, as well as 12 authorized charter schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameda County Superintendent of Schools Karen Monroe said her office had reached a deal with \u003ca href=\"https://curative.com\">Curative, Inc.\u003c/a>, a COVID-19 testing company, which will provide oral tests using self-administered swabs. The tests will be administered at school sites by nurses or other staff, who will put them in sealed bags for pickup, with results available in 48 hours, according to Monroe.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While some Bay Area private, parochial and charter schools have announced plans to resume in-person classes for select students — including at least \u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15YjiQ2ZQoAm614xf9IdzAA0s1WkPj98bhKVmkYdzoI4/edit#gid=0\">34 private and parochial elementary schools\u003c/a> in Alameda County —most of the region's largest districts have stuck with distance learning. Many teachers, as well as parents, have expressed concerns over the lack of timely COVID-19 tests for the thousands of school employees who would need to be tested before safely returning to class.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"covid-19,coronavirus\" label=\"more coverage\"]The contract comes at little or no cost to individual school districts; tests cost $100 each, and the testing company will bill teachers’ insurance providers directly, Monroe said. Additional schools will be able to sign up for testing in the future, she added.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There is no cost to the districts, that's essential,” Monroe said. “Particularly in these times of budget uncertainty at the state level and uncertainty for districts. What it's going to mean for districts is the ability to get results that show that their employees are covered free and give the ability when there is a particular case to respond very quickly.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Administering the test at school sites, she added, “is critical.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The deal also covers juvenile justice programs — like the Butler Academic Academy — and other alternative public schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Curative — which has already set up testing kiosks in Berkeley and Los Angeles — is currently working to provide tests to some schools in Texas, but has never worked in California schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both the state Department of Health and the Alameda County Public Health Department have recommended testing be in place before in-person classes reopen, and that at least 25% of all school staff who might be in contact with students or each other — from teachers to custodians to bus drivers — be tested every two weeks.[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Districts, however, can’t reopen schools until teachers' unions agree to the working conditions, and in many districts, the two sides are currently negotiating this.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Since the pandemic began, we've realized how important it is to have timely and accurate testing,\" Monroe said. \"And because I have the ability to be in meetings and hear conversations at the state level, it became very clear to me that we really did not have a good solution for this. So I began talking to different companies and potential partners to see if we could solve this problem.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Monroe said the next step is to procure tests for students.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But some teachers still have concerns about reopening too soon, despite the new testing plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Testing does nothing to mitigate the risk factors that exist for me and my students: Our zip code has one of the highest infection rates in the county, our classrooms are tiny and lack adequate ventilation, [there are] high rates of asthma and other underlying conditions in our student and staff population,\" said Maya Brodkey, a teacher at Fremont High School in Oakland. “Distance learning isn’t serving our kids, but I would rather they get a spotty education than risk them (or our staff) getting sick.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Along with testing, many parents and teachers have demanded that districts provide adequate PPE, emergency contact tracing plans and deep cleaning plans, as well as clearly communicated plans for staggered drop offs. Public health recommendations also include restricting classes to small cohorts of students who should remain isolated during lunch, recess and bathroom breaks. Schools and districts are also encouraged to develop contingency plans should an outbreak occur.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Schools in California can reopen for in-person instruction at any time if they are located in counties that have not been on the \u003ca href=\"https://covid19.ca.gov/safer-economy/\">state's monitoring list\u003c/a> within the last 14 days.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California has approved over 900 public and private elementary schools for in-person learning, according the Department of Public Health. Alameda and Santa Clara counties will join San Francisco in the orange tier — which allows schools to reopen physical classrooms — as long as they follow \u003ca href=\"https://files.covid19.ca.gov/pdf/guidance-schools--en.pdf\">state guidance\u003c/a> on how to do so safely. As a condition for reopening, several Bay Area teachers unions are pushing for worksite-specific COVID-19 prevention plans that outline how schools will conduct timely testing and contact tracing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Superintendent of Public Instruction Tony Thurmond on Thursday said there is no one-size-fits-all solution to making sure every school can reopen safely.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Until we learn more about what we’re dealing with, with the coronavirus, until there's a vaccine, we have to continue to do the things that are proven and that can keep us safe,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>This post has been updated.

People experiencing homelessness are also exempt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, Contra Costa County's sheriff issued an advisory for residents to remain indoors from 8 p.m. Monday through 5 a.m. Tuesday. The notice was not an order, but the sheriff's office said that could change.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayor Schaaf said Oakland's ban on overnight public movements is necessary to stem the violence and property destruction the city has seen since the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11821834/bay-area-protests-over-death-of-george-floyd\">first major local demonstrations last Friday\u003c/a> against the killing of George Floyd by Minneapolis police.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We have endured so much damage and pain over these last days,\" Schaaf said. \"But we have come to the conclusion by assessing conditions and the law enforcement intelligence that we have.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I want to be clear that this is in no way to quell what we are passionate about, and that is free speech and protest,\" the mayor said. \"... It is our hope that this will not curtail the lifting of voices for change in Oakland and America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland's interim police chief, Susan Manheimer, acknowledged that the curfew orders themselves are seen by many as an oppressive extension of police authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are aware of the historic uses of curfew and martial law and that it is oftentimes associated with the power on display are demonstrating against because of past and current transgressions,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/ACSOSheriffs/status/1267585058224795648\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said police would not move immediately to arrest people on the streets at 8 p.m. — but that consequences would follow for those who don't heed the order to stay indoors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Obviously, the curfew is a tool to clear the streets of folks who would be lawbreakers,\" Manheimer said. \"So we will be giving warnings as we always do with dispersal and provide safe and clear accesses for people to leave. For those who choose not to, they will be arrested.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Like Schaaf, the chief argued such measures are necessary in light of the unrest that has descended on the city each night since Friday.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Between 11 p.m. Sunday and 3 a.m. Monday, Manheimer said, \"We saw more than 50 arrests — some for shootings, some for looting, and our officers have taken an incredible amount of rocks, bottles and threats.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Local leaders across the Bay Area have blamed out-of-town opportunists for much of the damage seen across the region. Manheimer said police have determined that some of those who have smashed their way into stores in Alameda County traveled there from the San Joaquin Valley.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Our experience is, and what we found from the countywide arrests, is that many were coming, surprisingly, from the Stockton, Merced, southern area and coming in in very organized fashion — 15, 20, 30 cars at a time, hitting different shopping malls, different areas,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Leandro appeared to be one of the hardest-hit communities in Sunday's incidents, with dozens of people recorded on video entering stores in the Bayfair Center mall and exiting with merchandise. The city's Marina Square outlet mall also suffered multiple break-ins and vandalism.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The orders were issued as a crowd of hundreds gathered at Oakland Technical High School and then began a march down Broadway toward City Hall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/e_baldi/status/1267614656660508672\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

It is our hope that this will not curtail the lifting of voices for change in Oakland and America.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland's interim police chief, Susan Manheimer, acknowledged that the curfew orders themselves are seen by many as an oppressive extension of police authority.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are aware of the historic uses of curfew and martial law and that it is oftentimes associated with the power on display are demonstrating against because of past and current transgressions,\" Manheimer said.\u003c/p>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Musk also took a swipe at Alameda County’s interim health officer, Dr. Erica Pan — calling her “ignorant and unelected”— and warned that he was ready to move his company out of California altogether. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1259162367285317633\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Then came last week’s reopening — signaled first by the appearance of thousands of employee cars at the plant, then by Musk’s tweet that the plant was resuming production and that he was willing to be arrested, and finally by Alameda County’s repeated conciliatory statements that it was working things out with plant managers and that the company had a satisfactory plan to go ahead with a ramp up from “basic minimum operations” in preparation for a restart. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked on CNN’s “State of the Union” program on Sunday whether Tesla had been given preferential treatment when it suffered no legal consequences for disobeying the health orders, Gov. Gavin Newsom praised \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/05/17/sotu-newsom-tesla-treatment.cnn\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">what he called\u003c/a> “the spirit of cooperation” shown by the county and company. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s remarks were in line with sentiments expressed last week by Jim Wunderman, president and CEO of the Bay Area Council, a group representing hundreds of businesses and public agencies in the region. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have the world’s most iconic automobile manufacturer here in the Bay Area, which we’d like to keep,” Wunderman said in an interview. “It’s not just an auto manufacturer. They’re making the kind of vehicles that are the future of the world. They’re contributing something very special.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the council was “very satisfied” with Tesla getting back to work, though “under no circumstances are we suggesting any business owner violate any regs or anything like that. We didn’t in this case, and we wouldn’t in any other case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked what he would make of the situation if he were a bookseller or florist or other small business owner required to remain closed while Musk and Tesla defied the Alameda County orders, Wunderman said the automaker’s situation is unique. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look, in the real world, as a bookseller or a florist — and we love our booksellers and we revere our florists — they don’t have the leverage Tesla had with 10,000 employees and the kind of financial value and impact that a plant like (Fremont) has,” Wunderman said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"news_11817565,news_11801138,news_11788180\" label=\"Elon Musk and Tesla\"]Wunderman said the Bay Area counties had been “heroes — they save maybe hundreds or thousands of lives” by imposing shelter-at-home orders when they did. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Let’s not kid around about that — they did a great job,” he said. “But now they have to do the great job of getting folks back to work.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Robert Reich, former secretary of labor and a professor of public policy at UC Berkeley, says the way Tesla went about its reopening sets a terrible precedent. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It puts every business owner in an awkward and difficult position, because if you have enough wealth and power, you have political clout and you can defy orders and you can get what you want,” Reich said. “But most people who are in business can’t do that and should not do that. They understand that they have to obey the law, that they have certain social responsibilities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reich said Musk failed in those responsibilities by reopening the plant before health authorities had signed off on the company’s safety measures. He was especially critical of Musk for putting employees who have exhausted their paid time off in the position of having to report to work amid the pandemic or not get paid. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is the worst and most inhumane choice you can impose,” Reich said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reich said he believes Tesla and Musk should face some state sanction for defying the county health orders. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Who is calling the shots here?” he asked. “Public health authorities and authorities who are there to protect people or a very wealthy billionaire businessman who is there basically to maximize shareholder value and his own wealth?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ann Skeet, senior director of leadership ethics at Santa Clara University’s Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, said last week that Musk’s behavior followed a familiar arc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Silicon Valley leaders unfortunately have a reputation for disregard for laws and regulations, and they tend to wear it as a badge of honor,” Skeet said. “It’s not necessarily productive, and it’s certainly not considerate of the rest of the community and the broader society they’re operating in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skeet said there were other aspects of Musk’s confrontation with county authorities that “were not a good look.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Another overlay that’s really unfortunate is a highly qualified female authority being challenged by a male tech CEO in a community, Silicon Valley, that already has not a great reputation for gender relationships,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skeet said she believes that companies’ behavior will have lasting effects. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are going to have long memories on how leaders have responded in this moment,” she said. “And leaders who have put the health and well-being of their workers and customers front and center are going to bounce back more quickly, I think, than those that haven’t.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Gavin Newsom praised \u003ca href=\"https://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/05/17/sotu-newsom-tesla-treatment.cnn\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">what he called\u003c/a> “the spirit of cooperation” shown by the county and company. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom’s remarks were in line with sentiments expressed last week by Jim Wunderman, president and CEO of the Bay Area Council, a group representing hundreds of businesses and public agencies in the region. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We have the world’s most iconic automobile manufacturer here in the Bay Area, which we’d like to keep,” Wunderman said in an interview. “It’s not just an auto manufacturer. They’re making the kind of vehicles that are the future of the world. They’re contributing something very special.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said the council was “very satisfied” with Tesla getting back to work, though “under no circumstances are we suggesting any business owner violate any regs or anything like that. We didn’t in this case, and we wouldn’t in any other case.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asked what he would make of the situation if he were a bookseller or florist or other small business owner required to remain closed while Musk and Tesla defied the Alameda County orders, Wunderman said the automaker’s situation is unique. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Look, in the real world, as a bookseller or a florist — and we love our booksellers and we revere our florists — they don’t have the leverage Tesla had with 10,000 employees and the kind of financial value and impact that a plant like (Fremont) has,” Wunderman said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

They understand that they have to obey the law, that they have certain social responsibilities.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reich said Musk failed in those responsibilities by reopening the plant before health authorities had signed off on the company’s safety measures. He was especially critical of Musk for putting employees who have exhausted their paid time off in the position of having to report to work amid the pandemic or not get paid. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is the worst and most inhumane choice you can impose,” Reich said. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Reich said he believes Tesla and Musk should face some state sanction for defying the county health orders. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Who is calling the shots here?” he asked. “Public health authorities and authorities who are there to protect people or a very wealthy billionaire businessman who is there basically to maximize shareholder value and his own wealth?”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ann Skeet, senior director of leadership ethics at Santa Clara University’s Markkula Center for Applied Ethics, said last week that Musk’s behavior followed a familiar arc.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Silicon Valley leaders unfortunately have a reputation for disregard for laws and regulations, and they tend to wear it as a badge of honor,” Skeet said. “It’s not necessarily productive, and it’s certainly not considerate of the rest of the community and the broader society they’re operating in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skeet said there were other aspects of Musk’s confrontation with county authorities that “were not a good look.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Another overlay that’s really unfortunate is a highly qualified female authority being challenged by a male tech CEO in a community, Silicon Valley, that already has not a great reputation for gender relationships,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Skeet said she believes that companies’ behavior will have lasting effects. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People are going to have long memories on how leaders have responded in this moment,” she said. “And leaders who have put the health and well-being of their workers and customers front and center are going to bounce back more quickly, I think, than those that haven’t.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

There was also \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/arts/13878615/on-hypertension-in-a-pandemic-and-health-challenges-for-the-black-community\">a stark difference among black people nationwide\u003c/a>, who comprised 29% of COVID-19 patients, but 13% of the national population.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, there are a lot of gaps in what we know.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>First, there's just missing information. Most health departments in California are not reporting racial demographic data. And when there are data, there are often a lot of \"unknowns.\" In San Francisco County, 30% of cases have an unknown race, in Alameda County 28% and in Santa Clara County 17%.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=\"arts_13878615\"]Race and ethnicity are also complex concepts to reduce to basic, consistent data points – and health departments and the U.S. Census Bureau report race and ethnicity differently. For instance, the Alameda County Public Health Department combines \"Native Americans\" and \"multirace,\" whereas the U.S. Census Bureau reports \"American Indian and Alaska Native\" and \"Two or more races.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There's also the question of how to best \u003ca href=\"https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2018/02/06/theres-a-big-problem-with-how-the-census-measures-race/\">collect\u003c/a> and \u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2017/11/how-racial-data-gets-cleaned/541575/\">clean\u003c/a> data on race \u003cem>and\u003c/em> ethnicity. The U.S. Census Bureau considers \"White,\" \"Black or African American,\" \"Asian,\" \"American Indian and Alaska Native\" and \"Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander\" all races, \u003ca href=\"https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2015/06/15/is-being-hispanic-a-matter-of-race-ethnicity-or-both/\">but \"Hispanic or Latino\" as an ethnicity\u003c/a>. So someone who considers herself to be a white Latina could report her race and ethnicity in many different ways, including as \"White,\" \"Some other race\" or \"Two or more races.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>San Francisco does \u003ca href=\"https://data.sfgov.org/COVID-19/COVID-19-Cases-Summarized-by-Race-and-Ethnicity/vqqm-nsqg\">offer detailed data\u003c/a> using the U.S. Census definitions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cdiv>\n\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe title=\"San Francisco Latinos With Confirmed COVID-19 Cases\" aria-label=\"Bar Chart\" src=\"//datawrapper.dwcdn.net/uuG2p/1/\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border: none;\" width=\"600\" height=\"149\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\n\u003c/div>\n\u003cp>All of this assumes that someone's race is also being accurately recorded.

In 2016, San Francisco piloted a food pharmacy program that has since expanded to 10 clinics across the city and Marin County. The South Bay launched its first food pharmacy the same year of out the Samaritan House Free Clinic in Redwood City. Alameda County’s program now has five pharmacies under way at La Clinica, Hayward Wellness, Native American Health Center, West Oakland Health Center and Roots Community Clinic, with plans for several more in the coming year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameda County’s initiative was Chen’s brainchild and is part of County Supervisor Wilma Chan’s “new war on poverty,” a multi-pronged effort launched in 2014. The initiative hopes to improve health outcomes for the county’s most economically disadvantaged residents by making it easier to get fresh, healthy food — often a barrier for people living paycheck to paycheck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the need in Alameda County is profound. According to a recent report by the Alameda County Food Bank and the Urban Institute, roughly 1 in 5 people are either food insecure or at risk of hunger. Yet nearly half of those residents make too much money to\u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/07/19/californias-struggle-to-get-food-stamps-to-the-hungry/\"> qualify for food stamps\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That gap brings many of the hungry and those struggling with health issues to food banks such as Alameda County’s,\u003ca href=\"https://www.accfb.org/impact/by-the-numbers/\"> where 20%\u003c/a> of the households it serves have at least one member with diabetes and 39% have at least one member with high blood pressure. But organizers say food banks don’t have a doctor on-hand to advise clients on eating habits to manage certain health conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s where food pharmacies come in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the health centers where they operate, providers screen patients for food insecurity at routine checkups and then prescribe a list of produce to address their specific health needs, from hunger to diabetes, obesity to hypertension. Patients can then take their prescription vouchers and use them to pick up $10 of locally sourced produce at the clinic’s monthly food distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11792013\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2019/12/18/why-this-bay-area-county-is-betting-big-on-food-pharmacies-for-low-income-patients/la-clinica-healthy-food-2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11792013\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11792013\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"793\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2.jpg 1000w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2-800x634.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">La Cl’nica staff member Lauren Forsell, left, is part of a program in Alameda County that is providing healthy food to people as part of their health care. \u003ccite>(Aric Crabb/Bay Area News Group)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The produce is provided by Dig Deep Farms, a San Leandro-based farm that offers paid internships to formerly incarcerated youth and adults.

In 2016, San Francisco piloted a food pharmacy program that has since expanded to 10 clinics across the city and Marin County. The South Bay launched its first food pharmacy the same year of out the Samaritan House Free Clinic in Redwood City. Alameda County’s program now has five pharmacies under way at La Clinica, Hayward Wellness, Native American Health Center, West Oakland Health Center and Roots Community Clinic, with plans for several more in the coming year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alameda County’s initiative was Chen’s brainchild and is part of County Supervisor Wilma Chan’s “new war on poverty,” a multi-pronged effort launched in 2014. The initiative hopes to improve health outcomes for the county’s most economically disadvantaged residents by making it easier to get fresh, healthy food — often a barrier for people living paycheck to paycheck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Experts say the need in Alameda County is profound. According to a recent report by the Alameda County Food Bank and the Urban Institute, roughly 1 in 5 people are either food insecure or at risk of hunger. Yet nearly half of those residents make too much money to\u003ca href=\"https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/07/19/californias-struggle-to-get-food-stamps-to-the-hungry/\"> qualify for food stamps\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That gap brings many of the hungry and those struggling with health issues to food banks such as Alameda County’s,\u003ca href=\"https://www.accfb.org/impact/by-the-numbers/\"> where 20%\u003c/a> of the households it serves have at least one member with diabetes and 39% have at least one member with high blood pressure. But organizers say food banks don’t have a doctor on-hand to advise clients on eating habits to manage certain health conditions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s where food pharmacies come in.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the health centers where they operate, providers screen patients for food insecurity at routine checkups and then prescribe a list of produce to address their specific health needs, from hunger to diabetes, obesity to hypertension. Patients can then take their prescription vouchers and use them to pick up $10 of locally sourced produce at the clinic’s monthly food distribution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11792013\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1000px\">\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/2019/12/18/why-this-bay-area-county-is-betting-big-on-food-pharmacies-for-low-income-patients/la-clinica-healthy-food-2/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-11792013\">\u003cimg class=\"size-full wp-image-11792013\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"793\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2.jpg 1000w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2-160x127.jpg 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/12/FOOD-PRESCRIBE-2-800x634.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\">\u003c/a>\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">La Cl’nica staff member Lauren Forsell, left, is part of a program in Alameda County that is providing healthy food to people as part of their health care. \u003ccite>(Aric Crabb/Bay Area News Group)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>The produce is provided by Dig Deep Farms, a San Leandro-based farm that offers paid internships to formerly incarcerated youth and adults. The Alameda County Food Bank provides additional food, and patients who want more than the $10 of produce can use food stamps to buy from Dig Deep.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chen, who has a background in integrated medicine, was tapped to run the program after introducing a smaller-scale food pharmacy program at the Hayward Wellness Center. Chen, who had a background in integrated medicine, saw an opportunity to integrate food into primary care to help manage and prevent chronic illnesses and hunger. In August, he moved from Hayward Wellness to ALL In to implement the food pharmacy model across the county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La Clinica’s food distribution draws local volunteers through a\u003cb> \u003c/b>program that gives community members the opportunity to educate patients on healthy eating and cook a meal using produce passed out at the distribution. At a recent event, one volunteer ladled out spoonfuls of spicy chayote squash. “Try the recipe we made for you today!” she said to each patient.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dora, a 63-year-old Oakland resident who asked to use her only first name because of concerns over her immigration status, grabbed a bowl and drizzled the squash with a splash of lime. She is diabetic, unemployed and struggling to find work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At a visit to La Clinica a few months ago, she told her doctor she has trouble affording food. Her physician wrote her a prescription to La Clinica’s food pharmacy and she’s been coming faithfully for the past four months.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This helps me so much, what they give me, especially when I have no job,” she said in Spanish.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>La Clinica last week celebrated the one-year anniversary of its food pharmacy. Natalia Solano-Rojas, a registered dietitian at La Clinica, said 80 families typically use the distribution each month, and often line up early — rain or shine — to fill their grocery bags and carts with vegetables.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They’re pretty excited about it,” she says.”I think having it here in the clinic and seeing people that they know and are familiar with makes them a little more comfortable to come get food.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>For Marta, the extra produce helps her family get by when her\u003cb> \u003c/b>husband’s paycheck will only stretch so far. She left\u003cb> \u003c/b>with two grocery bags brimming with vegetables — squash, herbs, celery and fruit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I was very happy when I learned about this,” she says. “Because now that we have less work, we can still feed ourselves. And that’s a blessing for my house.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ci>Erica Hellerstein is a Mercury News reporter who is part of \u003c/i>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/divide/\">\u003ci>The California Divide\u003c/i>\u003c/a>\u003ci>, a collaboration among newsrooms examining income inequity and economic survival in California.\u003c/i>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

"content": "\u003cp>On a recent Friday night, roommates Jason Jones and Tamiko Panzella were hanging out in the Oakland apartment they shared, laughing about an epic gym workout.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I get there and we have to take our shoes and socks off,” Jones said, laughing. “I’m like, oh no, she got me into yoga. She tricked me.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What made the yoga session jarring was that it was Jones’ first full day of freedom after more than a decade behind bars.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Yeah they tell me to get into Downward Dog,” Jones said, as Panzella chuckled. “That’s the one position you don’t want to be in, in prison. The second day out! I look over there and she’s dying laughing.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On one level, it’s all normal, life-with-roommates kind of stuff, but this is new for Jones, 35.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He recently was released on parole, serving nearly 14 years in a series of California prisons for felony assault with a deadly weapon.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Jones and Panzella are part of a first-of-its-kind program that’s providing vitally needed housing for inmates released from prison. The program also aims to break down misconceptions and fear surrounding the formerly incarcerated in a nation that \u003ca href=\"http://www.prisonstudies.org/highest-to-lowest/prison-population-total?field_region_taxonomy_tid=All\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">imprisons more people than any other\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Homecoming Project in California’s Alameda County is matching prisoners being released after long sentences with homeowners and renters, who want to take part in the experiment. The nonprofit behind the program pays the former inmates’ rent for six months and actively supports the partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘It’s the first time I felt like I’m actually part of a family, you know what I mean?” said Jones.’\u003ccite>Jason Jones, former inmate\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Call it the social justice arm of the sharing economy. “The sharing economy with a conscience, with values,” said Alex Busansky, a former prosecutor and Justice Department lawyer. He now runs \u003ca href=\"https://impactjustice.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Impact Justice\u003c/a>, the group behind the novel housing initiative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Homecoming Project provides cash subsidies to homeowners in exchange for renting a room to a former inmate, Busansky said. It is similar to how Airbnb allows people to monetize their extra living spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For people getting out of prison, the penalty hasn’t ended and re-entry is its own obstacle course that everybody has to navigate,” Busansky said. “Housing is essential to being able to get through that obstacle course: If you don’t have a place to sleep, to shower, to keep your things, it’s very difficult to think about doing anything else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How it works\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Finding stable, affordable housing — especially in the San Francisco Bay Area — is often one of the biggest barriers to ex-inmates, along with finding a decent job and getting their life back on track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the nation, most inmates getting out after serving a lengthy sentence are offered some kind of transitional housing or a slot in a halfway house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That usually involves communal living in cramped quarters with other ex-convicts. Often, there are strict curfews, limits on visitors and other prison-like rules and restrictions. Some former inmates chafe at those limits, because it can limit their ability to reconnect with family or find a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this program has none of that. Participants come and go as they please. Issues that arise are worked out like any normal roommate situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Project Homecoming says you’re a person and we’re going to treat you like a person and give you the footholds and the scaffolding to be able to come back home and to be a full member of society just like anybody else,” Busansky said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ex-inmates and home hosts are both carefully screened, through interviews and home visits, to make sure it’s a good match. Hosts agree to rent their space for at least six months. There is training for the hosts before anyone gets a key to the home and follow-up support for all of them on the often unique and formidable challenges facing the formerly imprisoned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take a hard look at people’s pasts,” said the program’s coordinator, Terah Lawyer, who, as a formerly incarcerated woman, knows about the challenges of transitioning back from prison. “We have to look at their past as an indicator of what they’ve become over time. Most of our hosts are familiar with redemption and change and want to be a part of helping be the stepping stone for someone’s second chance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the experiment is small. It launched just a few months ago with six male ex-convicts paired with local hosts — couples and families — around the Bay Area. Impact Justice hopes to expand it to 25 participants by the end of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Panzella said she was initially apprehensive. But she had volunteered at a local prison and knew the challenges facing the formerly incarcerated.

The program also aims to break down misconceptions and fear surrounding the formerly incarcerated in a nation that \u003ca href=\"http://www.prisonstudies.org/highest-to-lowest/prison-population-total?field_region_taxonomy_tid=All\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">imprisons more people than any other\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Homecoming Project in California’s Alameda County is matching prisoners being released after long sentences with homeowners and renters, who want to take part in the experiment. The nonprofit behind the program pays the former inmates’ rent for six months and actively supports the partnership.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignright\">‘It’s the first time I felt like I’m actually part of a family, you know what I mean?” said Jones.’\u003ccite>Jason Jones, former inmate\u003c/cite>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Call it the social justice arm of the sharing economy. “The sharing economy with a conscience, with values,” said Alex Busansky, a former prosecutor and Justice Department lawyer. He now runs \u003ca href=\"https://impactjustice.org/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Impact Justice\u003c/a>, the group behind the novel housing initiative.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Homecoming Project provides cash subsidies to homeowners in exchange for renting a room to a former inmate, Busansky said. It is similar to how Airbnb allows people to monetize their extra living spaces.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For people getting out of prison, the penalty hasn’t ended and re-entry is its own obstacle course that everybody has to navigate,” Busansky said. “Housing is essential to being able to get through that obstacle course: If you don’t have a place to sleep, to shower, to keep your things, it’s very difficult to think about doing anything else.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>How it works\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Finding stable, affordable housing — especially in the San Francisco Bay Area — is often one of the biggest barriers to ex-inmates, along with finding a decent job and getting their life back on track.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Across the nation, most inmates getting out after serving a lengthy sentence are offered some kind of transitional housing or a slot in a halfway house.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That usually involves communal living in cramped quarters with other ex-convicts. Often, there are strict curfews, limits on visitors and other prison-like rules and restrictions. Some former inmates chafe at those limits, because it can limit their ability to reconnect with family or find a job.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But this program has none of that. Participants come and go as they please. Issues that arise are worked out like any normal roommate situation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Project Homecoming says you’re a person and we’re going to treat you like a person and give you the footholds and the scaffolding to be able to come back home and to be a full member of society just like anybody else,” Busansky said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ex-inmates and home hosts are both carefully screened, through interviews and home visits, to make sure it’s a good match. Hosts agree to rent their space for at least six months. There is training for the hosts before anyone gets a key to the home and follow-up support for all of them on the often unique and formidable challenges facing the formerly imprisoned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We take a hard look at people’s pasts,” said the program’s coordinator, Terah Lawyer, who, as a formerly incarcerated woman, knows about the challenges of transitioning back from prison. “We have to look at their past as an indicator of what they’ve become over time. Most of our hosts are familiar with redemption and change and want to be a part of helping be the stepping stone for someone’s second chance.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So far, the experiment is small. It launched just a few months ago with six male ex-convicts paired with local hosts — couples and families — around the Bay Area. Impact Justice hopes to expand it to 25 participants by the end of this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Panzella said she was initially apprehensive. But she had volunteered at a local prison and knew the challenges facing the formerly incarcerated. The more she learned, the more she and her boyfriend became excited to take part in the pilot.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because it’s not just working with the person in front of you,” Panzella said. “If it’s successful, this is something that could be replicated” in other American cities for smooth re-entry for former prisoners. In the United States, \u003ca href=\"https://www.prisonpolicy.org/reports/pie2018.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more than 600,000 people\u003c/a> are released from prison every year.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The larger goal\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A larger and perhaps more elusive goal is to demystify and to humanize the often abstract debates around criminal justice reform.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“For many people, the story of prison in America is not a story they know,” said Busansky. “They don’t know people who are in prison or people who are getting out of prison.” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Busansky said the biggest obstacle to growing the program was finding enough hosts.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s fear,” said Busansky. “There’s apprehension, a sense of the unknown.

Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
