Have you seen the Binational Health Week GoFundMe [2] page we created? We need to raise just $1400 to pay for services, childcare, and more during Binational Health Week in Austin, which this year serves not just local Latino families but also Harvey evacuees in the region. Please take a look, donate if you can, and share on your social media.
Here are some other links that you may have missed this week, all recommended by MCN staff.
