As \u003cem>The California Report's\u003c/em> Central Valley Bureau Chief based in Fresno for nearly a dozen years, Sasha brought the lives and concerns of rural Californians to listeners around the state. Her reporting helped expose the hidden price immigrant women janitors and farmworkers may pay to keep their jobs: sexual assault at work. It inspired two new California laws to protect them from sexual harassment. She was a key member of the reporting team for the Frontline film \u003cem>Rape on the Night Shift, \u003c/em>which was nominated for two national Emmys. Sasha has also won a national Edward R. Murrow and a national PRNDI award for investigative reporting, as well as multiple prizes from the Society for Professional Journalists. Sasha is a proud alum of the UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism and Brown University and a member of the South Asian Journalists Association.",

The HIPAA Privacy Rule, the law that sets privacy standards for medical information, \u003ca href=\"https://www.hhs.gov/hipaa/for-professionals/privacy/guidance/incidental-uses-and-disclosures/index.html\">has a provision\u003c/a> that allows for “incidental disclosures” of information as long as “reasonable safeguards” are applied.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The hospital will, and the doctor will make reasonable attempts to protect the patient’s privacy.” “What is reasonable is going to depend, again, on what’s wrong with the patient, how the patient is behaving, the nature of the circumstances,” Richardson said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>HIPAA protects the disclosure of medical records, which include names, addresses and social security numbers along with health conditions. State law also requires health facilities to protect this information. According to \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/sites/all/files/agweb/pdfs/immigration/healthcare-guidance.pdf\">guidance from the attorney general’s office\u003c/a>, health facilities should consider a patient’s immigration status confidential.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, some disclosures are required if law enforcement can prove lawful custody or show an appropriate warrant. A federal court warrant signed by a judge grants law enforcement immediate access to information or to search a particular area, while an ICE administrative warrant does not require immediate compliance.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Health workers in ‘precarious’ \u003cstrong>situations \u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Health facilities generally direct frontline workers not to engage with immigration agents, but rather to immediately contact security or management.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One particular incident at a Southern California surgery center stands out, in conversation with health workers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 8, federal agents targeted three landscapers who had parked outside of the Ontario Advanced Surgical Center. They chased one of the men inside on foot, according to a felony criminal complaint filed against two health care workers in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In videos of the incident posted online, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PW6Bysinn0\">masked agent wearing a vest labeled “POLICE ICE” \u003c/a>on the back holds a weeping man by the shoulder inside the center while several workers in scrubs stand by. At multiple points in the video workers ask the officer for identification; one worker says, “this is a private business.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two workers, Danielle Davila and Jose Ortega, tell the officer to leave. Davila moves between the officer and the man, saying “Get your hands off of him. You don’t even have a warrant.”[aside postID=news_12052815 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2019/01/gettyimages-91547950_slide-4d6100270cc91128d1beb27eca778a6dcd952acd-1020x680.jpg']Ortega puts an arm between Davila and the officer and says “You have no proper identification.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The officer says to both workers “You touched a federal agent.” Then Davila responds, “I’m not touching you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davila and Ortega were later charged with two felony counts of assaulting a federal officer and conspiring to prevent a federal officer from performing their duties.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Last week the felony charges were dismissed and both Davila and Ortega pleaded not guilty to a subsequent misdemeanor assault charge. A spokesperson for the U.S. attorney’s office declined to comment on the charges.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Davila’s defense attorney Oliver Cleary said his client believed she was doing the right thing by asking for credentials and a warrant.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“You can’t just come in where people are getting medical care and whisk them away,” Cleary said. “She didn’t know who these people were. They didn’t tell her who they were, and as far as she knew this was a patient of the clinic.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carlos Juárez, Ortega’s defense attorney, said arresting and charging health workers with crimes for asking to see a warrant and identification puts them in a “precarious” and “dangerous situation.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“They did what they needed to do and what they had a right to do,” Juárez said. “What I hope is it doesn’t have a chilling effect on other health care workers.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Workers say additional training can help\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Around the state, health workers say they’d like to see management provide additional guidance on how to respond to such scenarios if they were to play out in their workplace. Some workers are providing training themselves.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Adriana Rugeles-Ortiz, a licensed vocational nurse at Kaiser Permanente Modesto Medical Center, has been leading “Know Your Rights” sessions at her hospital and in her community as part of her union, SEIU-United Healthcare Workers West. She said some of her coworkers have expressed anxiety over some of the situations they’ve seen play out in other hospitals.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Because of my involvement with all the training that we have done to the workers and to the community, personally, I do feel prepared. I am not that confident that we have been able to reach the entire workforce within Kaiser to get them to the level of confidence to deal with it,” Rugeles-Ortiz said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dr. Douglas Yoshida, an emergency room physician at Stanford Health Tri-Valley in Alameda County, said additional guidance and training for workers at medical facilities could be of great value.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think as health care providers, we need to deliver good health care to these patients, just like any other patient, and we need to protect their rights,” Yoshida said. “I mean, personally, if someone comes in in ICE custody, within the limits of the law, I want to do everything I can to help [patients.]”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The hospital in Pleasanton that Yoshida works in is located near the county’s Santa Rita Jail; staff, he said, have been used to a law enforcement presence. But the recent incident at John Muir Medical Center, about 30 miles north, as well as the criminal charges filed against the southern California surgery center workers have set people on edge, Yoshida said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Normally, health care workers have no reason to fear law enforcement,” he added, “but we’re in uncharted territory.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Supported by the California Health Care Foundation (CHCF), which works to ensure that people have access to the care they need, when they need it, at a price they can afford.

State law also requires health facilities to protect this information. According to \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/sites/all/files/agweb/pdfs/immigration/healthcare-guidance.pdf\">guidance from the attorney general’s office\u003c/a>, health facilities should consider a patient’s immigration status confidential.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the same time, some disclosures are required if law enforcement can prove lawful custody or show an appropriate warrant.

That role remains vacant, along with three classroom teaching positions and multiple paraeducator jobs.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are writing to raise urgent concerns about the unsafe and unacceptable conditions at Mission Education Center,” the letter reads. “We love SFUSD. We believe in public education.

It said it was still looking for two TK teachers.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Please know that we see and understand these challenges, and we are truly grateful for your patience and partnership during this time,” the message, which the district shared with KQED, reads. “We are fully committed to providing the very best care and quality education to each of the 76 students enrolled at MEC.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12053561\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12053561\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/250825-SFUSDMISSIONEDCENTER-08-BL-KQED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/250825-SFUSDMISSIONEDCENTER-08-BL-KQED.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/250825-SFUSDMISSIONEDCENTER-08-BL-KQED-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/250825-SFUSDMISSIONEDCENTER-08-BL-KQED-1536x1024.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Mission Education Center, a bilingual elementary school in the San Francisco Unified School District, in San Francisco’s Noe Valley neighborhood, on Aug. 25, 2025. \u003ccite>(Beth LaBerge/KQED)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>After the children lined up and were led to their classrooms, the site’s interim principal — who himself has been teaching one of the classes, according to Mayfield — corralled worried parents in the cafeteria.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We don’t have teachers. We don’t have staff. We are scrambling to try to get resources here the rest of the week,” Mayfield recalled the interim leader saying. “It’s going to be pretty chaotic and pretty much adjusting targets every day.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayfield said before the school year started, his daughter’s class had been assigned a teacher, a longtime bilingual educator in SFUSD who taught older classes prior to this year. He met her during a back-to-school event the previous week, but on the first day, she wasn’t there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The parents showed up and we’re being told, ‘[This teacher’s] class line up here,’” Mayfield said. “We’re lined up, and this woman is in the front of the line, and I said, ‘Well, that’s not [our teacher]. I met her on Friday.

You want her to love school. You want her to feel safe at school. And literally she’s showing up every day, and she doesn’t know who’s going to be her teacher.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mission Education Center has operated for years as a small pre-kindergarten through fifth-grade campus meant to serve as a transitional school for newly arrived immigrant students, helping them get up to speed with the district’s grade-level learning standards and move into general education classrooms.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>SFUSD announced \u003ca href=\"https://www.ppssf.org/news/the-sfusd-transitional-kindergarten-program-is-opening-six-new-sites-in-2022-2023\">it would introduce\u003c/a> Spanish immersion TK at MEC for the 2022–23 school year, and last year, the site had \u003ca href=\"https://dq.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/dqcensus/enrgrdlevels.aspx?cds=38684786089585&agglevel=School&year=2024-25&ro=y\">47 TK students\u003c/a>, according to state data.

By Wednesday, the district had sent in central office employees as support, Mayfield said.[aside postID=news_12052609 hero='https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/08/240520-TKParentsDilemma-32-BL_qed.jpg']The letter also said that on the first day, parents anxiously lingering around the school until midmorning saw one child go to the bathroom alone, while others were left in the halls. They say they had to step in to lead early morning circle time for a group of TK kids. Substitute staff sent to teach the Spanish immersion classes, which include some children who only speak Spanish fluently, don’t have the necessary language skills, according to multiple parents.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“These conditions are unsafe, inequitable, and a violation of the state’s expectations for early education,” the parents wrote in their letter. “On-site staff have been transparent and honest about these challenges to us and are doing their best — and for this, we are grateful, we applaud them — but this clearly needs immediate support from the district.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lucia Gonzalezz Ippolito’s daughter, who started TK last week, had been in a Spanish Immersion preschool for the last two years. She said that the program was great, and her daughter could have continued there for one more year before enrolling in kindergarten, but she felt pressure to put her in TK at SFUSD so she would have a better chance of getting one of the district’s competitive Spanish immersion spots.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If I want her in a Spanish immersion program, I have to stay in MEC,” Gonzalez Ippolito said. “If you go to a regular TK or if you stay in preschool, then you’ll probably be like number 50 on the wait list.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since she took the helm as superintendent last year, Maria Su has said that one of her goals is to expand the district’s TK offerings, first \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12052609/as-transitional-kindergarten-opens-to-all-4-year-olds-sf-parents-compete-for-seats\">adding 16 classrooms this year\u003c/a>, and looking at potential locations for more early education programs in the future to meet enrollment demands. This fall, an influx of applications to the grade level, which California now guarantees access to for all students, \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12031802/san-francisco-public-schools-see-surge-applications-thanks-transitional-kindergarten-demand\">boosted the district’s struggling enrollment\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But, “if you’re going to focus and make this an early education hub and have multiple classes of TKs there, you need to give it the attention that it deserves,” Mayfield said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After the parents’ letter, a follow-up message on Friday morning, and more individual emails asking district leaders for information throughout the week, Mayfield said parents finally got a response from SFUSD’s assistant superintendent of early education late Friday morning.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We are working closely with HR to address the staffing needs at MEC, and by end of day Monday, we will be able to share additional updates regarding staffing plans and next steps,” Christie Herrera wrote in the message shared with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While parents wait to see what those updates will be, Mayfield said it feels like too little, too late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“If this is the way that the district acts and carries itself and works with parents, then I understand why parents don’t trust the district,” he told KQED. “I understand why the district has the reputation that they do for being very mismanaged and chaotic and disorganized and probably wasteful. It just feels like the district is there to try to protect the district, and nobody’s thinking about the kids.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

Esto significa que, en esos países, pueden preparar documentos legales importantes, como testamentos y contratos.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pero en EE.UU., víctimas de estafas creen erróneamente que los notarios poseen esas mismas habilidades en el sistema legal de este país, donde las autoridades \u003ca href=\"https://oag.ca.gov/news/press-releases/attorney-general-bonta-issues-consumer-alert-notario-fraud-obtaining-immigration\">llaman este tipo de crimen “notario fraud.”\u003c/a> Los notarios y los abogados son dos profesiones completamente diferentes en el sistema legal estadounidense.

Esto significa que usted puede ser representado por un abogado con licencia en un estado diferente al que vive. Si usted vive en California, por ejemplo, puede recibir asesoría de una abogado especializada en inmigración que reside en Nueva York.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Los abogados pueden manejar todos los aspectos de un caso, pueden representar a alguien ante una oficina de inmigración e incluso dar asesoramiento legal”, dijo Meza. “Pero para tener esa autoridad, hay que superar muchos niveles de escrutinio”.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Para trabajar como abogado en California, se debe:\u003c/p>\n\u003cul>\n\u003cli>Graduarse en la facultad de derecho (en EE.UU., un título en derecho es diferente de cualquier otro título universitario) o completar con éxito el programa estatal de aprendizaje \u003ca href=\"http://calbar.ca.gov/Admissions/Requirements/Education/Legal-Education/Law-Office-or-Judges-Chamber\">“Law Office Study Program”\u003c/a>,\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Aprobar el \u003ca href=\"https://www.calbar.ca.gov/Admissions/Examinations/California-Bar-Examination\">examen estatal de abogacía\u003c/a>, la prueba que deben superar todos los abogados que desean ejercer la abogacía en California, y\u003c/li>\n\u003cli>Mantener su certificación y estar en regla con \u003ca href=\"https://www.calbar.ca.gov/\">el Colegio de Abogados del estado\u003c/a>, que investiga los casos de mala conducta de los abogados.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Cuando busque un abogado de inmigración, es posible que también vea anuncios de “”consultores de inmigración”. Se trata de profesionales que pueden traducir documentos importantes, ayudarle a completar ciertas solicitudes o proporcionarle información general sobre el sistema de inmigración estadounidense.
