Five on Friday: Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! We are revving up for 2020, and we’re so grateful to have you along the ride with us, working hard for health justice. Here are a few reads that have kept us up to date. Have a safe and healthy 2020!

Alma shared an article from EHS Advisor, entitled, “The Top Occupational Safety and Health Issues for 2020: An Employer’s Guide.”

Del shared the article, “Gana paso la pobreza en Puerto Rico,” which includes two communities served by Hospital General Castañer, a community health center that regularly partners with MCN.

Looking internationally, Karen forwarded on, “Self-Harm, Fear, Neglect: New Reports Show Horror Faced by Lone Children at Greek Migrant Camp.”

Weekly Win: Jess sent in “Immigrants Lift Up a Food System in Need of Reform,” from Civil Eats, which is subtitled, “Farmworker advocates argue that if we want to revitalize the food economy, we must embrace—and not criminalize—immigrants.”

Have a safe and healthy weekend.
