Walk for Hope

Walk for Hope

About 6-years ago we got a call from my mother-in-law. In her no-nonsense style she told us that she had breast cancer.

Quick bargain roadtrip to Vegas last weekend included the Eagles at the Sphere, Red Rock Canyon hiking, and Bruno Mars’ Pinky Club! Did you know that the Pinky Club in the Bellagio has tables that go for as much as $5k?! But you can also just walk in with no reservation and dance to a DJ and live band playing 80s and 90s hip hop all night long?! They don’t allow pictures in the club so none here. Another great deal we discovered was buying tickets to The Sphere minutes before the show started. We also stayed at Virgin Hotel off the strip and were upgraded to a suite. #visitlasvegas #redrockcanyon #thesphere

A desert mural lines the walkway to the backyard where a rooster crows and rain barrels are set up to capture water. Casita is also a co-op living space where Ramos and his family live and host community events about topics ranging from Indigenous yarn dyeing to growing food.⁠

Everyone who lives or has lived at @casitadelbarrioeste has something important to offer. For Ramos’ partner Ellie Guzman, it’s her passion for cultural planning and growing food and herbs.⁠

Homeowners aren’t the only ones experiencing los

Homeowners aren’t the only ones experiencing loss and difficult times after the fires. @delosangelestimes Across Los Angeles, an untold number of immigrant domestic workers and service workers are grappling with not only the loss of their jobs and incomes due to the fires that destroyed thousands of homes across the region, but also the threat of mass deportations under the Trump administration, which is making it difficult for some to look for new jobs or feel safe accessing services.⁠
⁠
All of it has put major pressures on immigrant workers who do not have easy access to support.⁠
⁠
“Immigrant communities are facing a mountain of obstacles, of adversities that of course will impact our mental health,” said Germán A. Cadenas, associate professor at Rutgers Graduate School of Applied and Professional Psychology.⁠
