His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically. Mark majored in political science at Colorado College, where, in a perfect send-off for a cartoonist, he received his diploma in 1991 as commencement speaker Dick Cheney smiled approvingly.\r\nMark Fiore was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for political cartooning in 2010, a Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award in 2004 and has twice received an Online Journalism Award for commentary from the Online News Association (2002, 2008). Fiore has received two awards for his work in new media from the National Cartoonists Society (2001, 2002), and in 2006 received The James Madison Freedom of Information Award from The Society of Professional Journalists.",

I was stunned because his was one of the first books I ever read at the Riverside Public Library. The first day in class, James Baldwin was so profound, but I was afraid to talk to him. Afterwards his driver and his secretary — they were probably 27 or so and both 6'2\"— saw Dwayne, my husband, who was 6'4\". They said, “Who’s this? We want to play basketball with him.” After that, the three of them would play basketball, and James Baldwin and I would sit in his rental house and talk about fiction.

Over the last five years while I was working on this book, I went to Turkey, Sicily, Salzburg, New York, and San Francisco, and what people wanted to talk to me about was home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11747923,news_11759939,news_11746863 label='Chasing the California Dream']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I went home after some of those trips, walked around, and looked at the wonder of the \u003ca href=\"https://www.kcet.org/shows/lost-la/the-santa-ana-river-how-it-shaped-orange-county\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Santa Ana River\u003c/a>. Sometimes I run into women who are indigenous; they have a pocket knife and a Tupperware and their grandsons are cutting a specific sage and a specific buckwheat that their great-grandmothers told them help fight diabetes.

All over my state, I find people who are fiercely protective and loyal to the place they’re from, whether it’s Salinas, Buttonwillow, Riverside, Ontario, Pomona, or Chino. I find that no one really understands just how loyal Californians are to their state, but also to their actual homelands inside this large state.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

The women could not have dreamed that in this promised land we would still have bullets and fear and murder. Fracture and derision and assault, sharp and revived. I was born here, and I am still here, and I didn’t leave, which doesn’t feel very heroic. You three, my daughters, have laughed at me for looking out the kitchen window of our house toward the hospital where I was born, where your father was born, where you were born. My daily life is a five-mile radius of memory and work and family. You three daughters know this in your genes: You love only orange-blossom honey, because you grew up with that scent and those flowers, that fruit and those bees. You long for Santa Ana winds and sunflowers, tumbleweeds and the laughter of people eating at long unfolded tables in a driveway.

I was stunned because his was one of the first books I ever read at the Riverside Public Library. The first day in class, James Baldwin was so profound, but I was afraid to talk to him. Afterwards his driver and his secretary — they were probably 27 or so and both 6'2\"— saw Dwayne, my husband, who was 6'4\". They said, “Who’s this? We want to play basketball with him.” After that, the three of them would play basketball, and James Baldwin and I would sit in his rental house and talk about fiction. He talked to me about secondary characters saying, “This is the main part and the heart of your story.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One night we invited him over for dinner. At the end of the evening he said, “You have to write about home. You must write about this place where you come from.” That changed everything for me.

Statewide, roughly 37% of Californians age 18 to 34 live with their parents, according to U.S.Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In this pricey part of Southern California, where the average home is valued at well over $700,000, about 55% of young adults shack up with mom and/or dad.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[My wife and I] had an apartment here for two years,” said Ostheimer. “But I was spending like 30 grand a year in rent, and I could have had that in my savings right now.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Despite a booming economy and sizzling job market, millennial, and now Generation Z, Californians are as likely to live at home as young Californians were a decade ago during the depths of the Great Recession.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This has, I think, surprised many of us, including myself,” said Richard Fry, a senior researcher with the Pew Research Center, who says he expected multi-generational living arrangements to decline as the economy recovered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Clearly in certain areas rents have gone up and the cost of living independently has increased.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here’s everything you need to know about the roughly 3.6 million Californians living with mom and dad into their 20’s and early 30’s. Yes, including the sex stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Geography of Living With Your Parents\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>California is not the only state with a high rate of young adults living with mom and dad. The living arrangement is equally common in high-cost states such as New York and Massachusetts. In New Jersey, an astonishing 46% of 18- to 34-year olds stay with at least one of their parents, according to Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at where in California young adults are living with their parents explains a lot about the reasons why. Somewhat counterintuitively, expensive urban cores in places such as San Diego and San Francisco actually have relatively low rates of young adults living at home, owing to the large numbers of twenty-somethings who shack up with roommates to defray housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hotspots where stay-at-homers are most ubiquitous usually come in one of two flavors: affluent suburbs near the coast, or lower-income areas often farther inland and with a high concentration of Latino households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Places like Mission Viejo, with a median household income of over $100,000, are a good example of that first flavor. So are expensive Southern California communities like Palos Verdes or Bay Area burbs like Cupertino and Saratoga, where more than half of young adults live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770089\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770089\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-160x115.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1020x734.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1200x863.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1.png 1832w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CalMatters and \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=b0422b74cdb442b1bdbe5d23a9835e0c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Esri\u003c/a> analysis of American Community Survey data.

Nearly half of California Latinos between 18 and 34 live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Hispanics] tend to have higher levels of what we call familism — high regard for family, obligations to family, closeness to family members,” said Hardie, who researches young adult living arrangements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/bdda5524-e7ee-4372-bbde-18ba06cbaa7e?src=embed\" title=\"Demographics of living at home\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stereotypes of unemployed, shiftless man-children playing X-Box in their parents’ basement aren’t really borne out by the data. More than 40% of California stay-at-homers are enrolled in school of some sort, often community college. The vast majority who are not in school are working at least part time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps unsurprisingly, those who are working typically aren’t making much money. The median income for a working stay-at-homer over the age of 25 is just north of $22,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Love and Sex, with Parents Down the Hall\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Where do young Californians living at home get intimate with their partners? Some are resorting to a tried and true form of privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A Hyundai. Sedan.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[The car] is small. Very small. Compact, really,” laughed Vicki, a 22-year-old college student who lives with her parents in the suburbs of Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vicki and her boyfriend Logan, 25, have fond memories of a parking lot across from the football field at Sacramento State University. Vicki and Logan are pseudonyms — they requested their real names not be used for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Logan also lives with his parents, which made finding a place to have sex somewhat problematic, at least early in the relationship. Vicki’s parents forbid Logan from spending the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So on weekdays after class, Vicki would tell her parents she would be studying late — like 3 a.m. late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At times it would have been more comfortable or more convenient if we could go to like an apartment or a room in general,” said Vicki. “But for a while it was fun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three months into the relationship, Vicki and Logan now typically get intimate in Logan’s bedroom at his parents’ place. Logan says his parents generally don’t care, or at least haven’t told him if they do. He chips in on the mortgage anyway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a new world for both parents and children,” said Dr. Helen Fisher, a researcher on sex and love at the Kinsey Institute. “In my day, one never took a boy home. Never.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag=\"housing\" label=\"More Articles on Housing\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fisher said parents are generally less concerned about their adult children having sex in their house than they are about their children saving up enough money to buy a house of their own one day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And a certain type of parent might actually prefer to keep their children and their partners this close.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Some people might be pleased with it because they get to know their child in a new way, and they get to know some of the people they are going around with,” said Fisher. “They’re helicopter parents.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But even while parents are more sexually permissive than they used to be, it doesn’t mean it’s a boon to your average young person’s sex life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s impacting their love life in an important way — they’re having less sex,” said Fisher. \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Lots of ink has been spilled in recent years on the so-called “\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/12/the-sex-recession/573949/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">sex recession\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">” — why younger people are having less sex than they used to. Researchers have hypothesized explanations ranging from the prevalence of online pornography to hook-up culture and dating apps. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">And while some couples like Vicki and Logan have resorted to a vehicular bedroom, their parking spot is actually the exception, not the rule. Public sex is likely down among younger adults, said Fisher.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770026\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770026\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Sac_State_Parking_Lot-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The parking lot where some Sacramento State students who live with their parents have sex. \u003ccite>(Matt Levin for CalMatters)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Chicken-and-egg Marriage Questions\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Lame dad jokes aside, people in long-term relationships or marriages are much more likely to be having sex than singles.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Which raises a head-scratching question for those who study multi-generational households: Are young people living with their parents longer because they’re not in long-term relationships, or are they not in relationships because it’s tough to attract a partner when you’re living at home?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I don’t know which is the chicken and which is the egg,” said Richard Fry, the Pew researcher. “The evidence is pretty clear that young adults who live with a partner or spouse don’t usually live with mom or dad. But over the last 60 years, young adults are substantially less likely to be partnered or to be married.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s high cost of living is complicating that reasoning. In south Orange County, where living with your parents well into young adulthood is relatively free of stigma, moving out is no guarantee your love life will improve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ian Baker is 29 and works two low-wage jobs, one at a bowling alley near Mission Viejo. He moved out of his mother’s place a little less than a year ago, and hasn’t been on a date since.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Living with my parents it actually wasn't that hard to try and meet girls. Honestly it became harder when I moved out, just because of the fact that in order to move out I had to start working two jobs,\" said Baker.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baker now pays $700 a month in rent to split a two-bedroom apartment with three roommates.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The irony isn’t lost on him. But Baker takes solace in the fact that he enjoys a romantic step-up from at least one of his roommates. The one who lives in the living room.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"At least I have a door, he doesn’t” said Baker. “So I think it’s a little bit harder for him.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770147\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"wp-image-11770147 size-medium\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-800x349.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-800x349.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-160x70.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1020x445.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1200x523.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image-1920x838.png 1920w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/Spouse_Last_Image.png 1999w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Does your county have more young people living with a spouse or with their parents? \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=cdc36635a1c6488091e5e8ae1433d3d1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Click the map for the full interactive.\u003c/a>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>The California Dream series is a statewide media collaboration of CalMatters, KPBS, KPCC, KQED and Capital Public Radio, with support from the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the James Irvine Foundation and the College Futures Foundation.\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\">\u003cimg class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-11768052\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"219\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219.jpg 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/CADreamBanner-1-800x219-160x44.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Yes, including the sex stuff.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>The Geography of Living With Your Parents\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>California is not the only state with a high rate of young adults living with mom and dad. The living arrangement is equally common in high-cost states such as New York and Massachusetts. In New Jersey, an astonishing 46% of 18- to 34-year olds stay with at least one of their parents, according to Census Bureau data.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Looking at where in California young adults are living with their parents explains a lot about the reasons why. Somewhat counterintuitively, expensive urban cores in places such as San Diego and San Francisco actually have relatively low rates of young adults living at home, owing to the large numbers of twenty-somethings who shack up with roommates to defray housing costs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hotspots where stay-at-homers are most ubiquitous usually come in one of two flavors: affluent suburbs near the coast, or lower-income areas often farther inland and with a high concentration of Latino households.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Places like Mission Viejo, with a median household income of over $100,000, are a good example of that first flavor. So are expensive Southern California communities like Palos Verdes or Bay Area burbs like Cupertino and Saratoga, where more than half of young adults live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_11770089\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"max-width: 800px\">\u003cimg class=\"size-medium wp-image-11770089\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-800x576.png 800w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-160x115.png 160w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1020x734.png 1020w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1-1200x863.png 1200w, https://ww2.kqed.org/app/uploads/sites/10/2019/08/GRAPHIC_1.png 1832w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">CalMatters and \u003ca href=\"https://esrimedia.maps.arcgis.com/apps/Minimalist/index.html?appid=b0422b74cdb442b1bdbe5d23a9835e0c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Esri\u003c/a> analysis of American Community Survey data.

Nearly half of California Latinos between 18 and 34 live at home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“[Hispanics] tend to have higher levels of what we call familism — high regard for family, obligations to family, closeness to family members,” said Hardie, who researches young adult living arrangements.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c!-- iframe plugin v.4.3 wordpress.org/plugins/iframe/ -->\u003cbr>\n\u003ciframe src=\"https://e.infogram.com/bdda5524-e7ee-4372-bbde-18ba06cbaa7e?src=embed\" title=\"Demographics of living at home\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" class=\"iframe-class\">\u003c/iframe>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stereotypes of unemployed, shiftless man-children playing X-Box in their parents’ basement aren’t really borne out by the data. More than 40% of California stay-at-homers are enrolled in school of some sort, often community college. The vast majority who are not in school are working at least part time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Perhaps unsurprisingly, those who are working typically aren’t making much money. The median income for a working stay-at-homer over the age of 25 is just north of $22,000.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Love and Sex, with Parents Down the Hall\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Where do young Californians living at home get intimate with their partners?

Compact, really,” laughed Vicki, a 22-year-old college student who lives with her parents in the suburbs of Sacramento.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Vicki and her boyfriend Logan, 25, have fond memories of a parking lot across from the football field at Sacramento State University. Vicki and Logan are pseudonyms — they requested their real names not be used for this story.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Logan also lives with his parents, which made finding a place to have sex somewhat problematic, at least early in the relationship. Vicki’s parents forbid Logan from spending the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So on weekdays after class, Vicki would tell her parents she would be studying late — like 3 a.m. late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“At times it would have been more comfortable or more convenient if we could go to like an apartment or a room in general,” said Vicki. “But for a while it was fun.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three months into the relationship, Vicki and Logan now typically get intimate in Logan’s bedroom at his parents’ place. Logan says his parents generally don’t care, or at least haven’t told him if they do. He chips in on the mortgage anyway.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a new world for both parents and children,” said Dr. Helen Fisher, a researcher on sex and love at the Kinsey Institute. “In my day, one never took a boy home.

But over the last 60 years, young adults are substantially less likely to be partnered or to be married.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>California’s high cost of living is complicating that reasoning. In south Orange County, where living with your parents well into young adulthood is relatively free of stigma, moving out is no guarantee your love life will improve.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Ian Baker is 29 and works two low-wage jobs, one at a bowling alley near Mission Viejo.

"content": "\u003cp>Last December, Brighid FitzGibbon’s son, Evan, entered a catatonic state. Acute psychosis had hit suddenly a few weeks earlier, toward the end of fall semester of his sophomore year at Bard College in upstate New York. Gripped by terrifying delusions, his body began to shut down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>FitzGibbon and her husband, Taylor, rushed their 20-year-old son to a hospital in Sonoma County, where they live. An acquaintance told them about a promising program for young people experiencing early psychosis. But the family quickly discovered a problem: the program didn’t exist in their county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In California, geography creates significant barriers to people getting early psychosis treatment, as it does for array of other evidence-based mental health treatments. That’s partly because California’s 58 counties have 58 different public mental health programs, each with their own set of covered services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='mental-health' label='more on mental health']“If you get on a bus in Northern California and take it to Southern California, you get different services depending on where you step out,” said Carmela Coyle, president and CEO of the California Hospital Association, a lobbying group for the state’s hospitals. “That’s just inequitable.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Tom Insel, whom Gov. Gavin Newsom recently appointed as his top mental health advisor, has likened the fragmented system to playing the piano with \u003cu>\u003ca href=\"https://calmatters.org/articles/if-you-think-the-system-works-youre-dead-wrong-a-discussion-on-californias-mental-health-system/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">58 fingers\u003c/a>\u003c/u>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s no central leadership, really,” said Insel, the former director of the National Institute of Mental Health. “If you ask, ‘What are the counties trying to accomplish? What are their goals? What is their North Star?’ I can’t tell you that. There’s a North Star in L.A. County, in San Mateo, in Alameda.

The Napa program also receives support from local vintners, a large charity auction and a variety of federal and state funding sources.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But despite Carter’s commitment to bringing early psychosis programming to Sonoma County, he has encountered significant obstacles. After 2017’s wildfires, the county is facing huge budget shortfalls—and making steep cuts to mental health care.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Convincing the public to invest significantly in a prevention program for relatively few people is challenging, Carter said, especially when so many very sick people are going without care.

Why do 58 counties do things 58 ways? By design. Back in 1991, the state faced a budget crisis, and in a process known as “realignment,” it shifted responsibility for mental health delivery to counties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It also assigned counties dedicated funding from sales taxes and vehicle license fees, creating formulas based on how much each county was spending at the time. Over the years, these funds have neither kept pace with need nor been adjusted to account for changing populations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2004, California voters passed the Mental Health Services Act initiative, levying a tax on the state’s millionaires. It has pumped in about \u003cu>\u003ca href=\"https://mhsoac.ca.gov/act\">$15 billio\u003c/a>\u003ca href=\"https://mhsoac.ca.gov/act\">n more for mental health\u003c/a>\u003c/u>, which the stated doles out to counties to promote flexibility.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Counties say they need to be nimble. In a state as vast and varied as California, the issues facing rural Trinity County differ from those of urban Los Angeles. But the approach has disadvantages.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside tag='kaiser-permanente-mental-health' label='mental healthcare access']“There’s not necessarily rhyme or reason to why a county chooses to provide some services and not others,” said Sheree Lowe, vice president of behavioral health for the California Hospital Association. “The best way to describe it is, it’s a broken delivery system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What the state needs, Lowe contends, is core services available in every community. Now, she says, the state doesn’t track what services are provided in each county.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2012, the state shuttered its Department of Mental Health, and moved many of its staff members to the Department of Health Care Services. Some feel the move further sidelined mental health.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think counties have been cast adrift, really,” said Randall Hagar, government relations director for the California Psychiatric Association, which represents the interests of the state’s psychiatrists. “I would agree with the assessment that there is still no state leadership.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>This isn’t true everywhere. Oregon has a comprehensive, state-run early psychosis program. New York state created \u003cu>\u003ca href=\"https://www.ontrackny.org/\">OnTrackNY,\u003c/a>\u003c/u> a state-led effort to provide coordinated early psychosis care to young people.

In 2008, Dr. Cameron Carter, a prominent psychiatrist with a strong interest in early psychosis, recruited her to the Sacramento clinic he’d founded.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Today, the staff includes psychiatrists, therapists, a family advocate and a specialist in education and employment, as well as a worker dedicated to meeting patients’ social needs, such as housing. Patients participate in peer and family support groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Too often, Niendam says, individuals “just float around in our system receiving sometimes inadequate care.” Effective mental health care doesn’t simply make symptoms go away, she said. It gives individuals and families the tools to pursue meaningful lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That’s more than a pill can do,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of the clinic’s patients, Meheretab — who asked that his last name not be used — began attending Niendam’s clinic after suicidal thoughts and hallucinations. Meheretab, who has Medi-Cal, said the infrequent treatment he was receiving through Kaiser wasn’t working. Niendam’s clinic felt safe. With a combination of medication, counseling, job support and a peer group, he said, his depression subsided and the hallucinations ended.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I feel like I’m in a better place right now,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Niendam helped Napa and Solano counties start early psychosis programs and is currently doing the same with Yolo County. Small counties can struggle to hire and train the staff necessary for a full early psychosis program, so she is developing a way for them to contract with larger counties or use telemedicine. She wants to expand the treatment model statewide.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Watching people who have been hospitalized 10 times return to school or hold a fulltime job, and showing them they can recover, “are the things that keep me going every day,” she said. “It’s game-changing for everyone. It’s super exciting to be part of that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

These officers stated that the elderly Alvarez, who was 5-foot-4, turned toward Hauscarriague as he was being tackled and pushed the 6-foot-tall officer, who was 24, into a nearby wall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hauscarriague would later tell investigators that he and the other officers were familiar with Alvarez, that the patient had threatened to kill police officers, had recently head-butted an officer and was known to make weapons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But the details of that history reveal that Alvarez was struggling with his illness following a medication change. His alleged pattern of weapon-making stemmed from a December 2016 confrontation in which Alvarez broke a radio in his room and was carrying a broken antenna, which police later characterized as a “shank.” He put the antenna down when he was ordered.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During an outburst in January 2017, records show, hospital police officers pushed him against a wall, and Alvarez “used the back of his head and head-butted” an officer, who was uninjured and who “refused to press charges.”[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='Jose Alvarez']‘The public needs to be educated that we’re not just animals locked up.’[/pullquote]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His history in the hospital is peppered with arguments with staff and threats to police officers.

He was booked into Napa County Jail. Police Chief Dominique Hauscarriague appears to have signed the paperwork transferring Alvarez to county jail the day after he was injured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alvarez’s primary doctor, Dr. Domingo Languitan, also told investigators and Alvarez’s attorney that there was internal pressure to send the patient to jail. He said that his supervisor told him to write the required medical recommendation. Languitan had never done this before, he said, and it was not his opinion that criminal charges should be filed or that Alvarez should be sent to jail. Languitan did not return a phone call seeking comment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Hauscarriague, Truong and Donaldson all testified at a July 6, 2017, preliminary hearing. They all said Alvarez’s fists were clenched and his back was toward the officers when Hauscarriague ran toward him and grabbed him from behind. They testified that Alvarez turned and pushed against Hauscarriague, and then they both fell into the wall. Based on the officers’ testimony, a judge found the charges against Alvarez credible and he was held in jail for three more months before the case was dismissed by prosecutors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Alvarez’s attorney, Karen Silver, said the officers clearly committed perjury in that testimony.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Those cops lied,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>No part of the state’s investigation considered potential perjury, however, according to DSH spokesman Montano.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A very different story emerged during the state’s investigation, conducted by the Office of Law Enforcement Support, a little-known oversight agency created in 2015 after concerns about patient safety at state hospitals and developmental centers. Civilian staff and patients who were interviewed by investigators said that Alvarez was agitated and “mouthing off,” but was never a direct threat to anyone.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dozens of people were in the courtyard that day.

Officers Jose Becerra, Vuong Truong and Stuart Donaldson were all served with letters of instruction and retrained on use of force, communication, report-writing and interviewing policies, according to Department of State Hospitals spokesman Ralph Montano.
