  • Community Action Planned today in Hunter's Point

    This month we're taking the tour over to San Francisco's Bayview/Hunter's Point to investigate the ongoing health issues these communities are facing. Unfortunately, just like West Oakland, residents of the South East portion of the city are facing some serious challenges to cleaning up their neighborhoods.

    Here are a few recent articles that shed some light on what's been happening.
