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:
- ouRXperience welcomes Marley Zalay as our new Greater Oroville community correspondent. For her first blog post, Marley writes about how Butte County received a whopping "F" on its air quality report card this year.
- Changvang Her, of Merced, interviews a Hmong shaman and a western doctor about a program that helps create understanding between the Hmong and medical staff at a local hospital.
- From South Sacramento, Sharon Chandler introduces us to a non-profit with a mission of creating a cleaner environment and access to healthy foods in the community.
- Finally, San Bernardino correspondent Bobbi Albano writes about a program that raises awareness about child abuse.
