DACA Under Trump Administration
A growing number of people part of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program are facing immigration enforcement under the Trump Administration. Set as immigration policy in 2012 by the United States, it allows some individuals brought to this country illegally as children to apply for a limited work permit. Today on Insight, CapRadio Statehouse Politics Reporter Gerardo Zavala shares the story of one Sacramento woman whose life was upended after her case was reopened last month.
New CA State Parks
California is already home to the most state parks in the country, but few can be found in the Central Valley. That will change this year with the addition of three new state parks, including one along the Feather River in Yuba County. State Parks Director Armando Quintero and Rachel Abbott, Public Information Officer for Yuba County, join us today to explain more about what’s to come.
Joshua’s House Homeless Hospice
For the past year, a new facility in South Natomas has been helping people experiencing homelessness and living with a terminal illness see out their final days with dignity and compassion. The idea for Joshua’s House was in the works for more than a decade, the brainchild of former UC Davis and Sac State professor Dr. Marlene von Friederichs-Fitzwater, who lost her grandson Joshua on the streets of Nebraska in 2014. Chris Erdman joins Insight to talk about the work of Joshua's House, the first hospice-like home of its kind on the West Coast caring for people experiencing homelessness.
