In my lifetime I have been blessed to be in relationship with some truly remarkable and authentic humans. My ability to relate to individuals from all walks of life has been a very welcome superpower for as far back as I can remember.

This superpower has guided me down the streets and avenues of life picking up profound internal understandings of humanity, while building a network of reciprocal love and brotherhood along the way.

#InTheNews: A new system in California recasts gun violence as a public health concern. It’s saving lives...#HospitalbasedViolenceInterventionPrograms could soon see funds provided by Medi-Cal, the state’s Medicaid program.

Figuring out all the nuts and bolts of how the funding will work will take time. In the meantime, the HAVI is convening a large group of violence prevention organizations across the state, including @YouthALIVE510 , to determine what next steps look like.

“We’re working really, really hard to get that right,” Dr. Kyle Fischer @KBFischer , policy director @TheHAVI said. “What we are aiming to do is making sure that in every county in California where there is a survivor of violence that needs violence prevention services – those county health plans are working with the local violence intervention programs so that they’re being reimbursed in a fair, equitable and strong way that minimizes the bureaucracy.”

These organizations are also working to help both lawmakers and the general public begin to see community violence as a public health concern.

Still can't believe this. #moreISpossible

[Dr. Flo Cofer - she/her @Flo4Sacramento]

I am running for mayor of Sacramento because it breaks my heart to watch our neighbors suffer when we have the resources to care for them. #MoreIsPossible 🫶🏿

Thank you @GavinNewsom for signing #AB1929 into law.

@AsmJesseGabriel has championed violence prevention for years, and now sustainable public health funding for violence prevention is finally a reality in CA.

We're so proud to co-sponsor with @GiffordsCourage and @TheHAVI

[The HAVI @TheHAVI]

Today California became the 5th state in the U.S. to pass legislation ensuring community violence prevention services are covered by Medicaid. Thank you @AsmJesseGabriel @YouthALIVE510 for your leadership! #AB1929 @KBFischer

"To have @CAgovernor once again strip out funding for community-based orgs, clinics, & tribal orgs is devastating. 2 years of historic #CAbudget surpluses, during which the rich got richer and the underserved still get crumbs, is beyond incomprehensible." https://t.co/WR8BUWY6Ih
