WESLACO, Texas - Unidos Contra la Diabetes' collective impact director, Moises Arjona, Jr., has discussed the Rio Grande Valley's health clinic concerns after recent U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement raids.Arjona gave an update during a recent Hidalgo County Prosperity Task Force webinar on Tuesday. Unidos Contra la Diabetes is a collective impact initiative working to prevent and reduce and type two diabetes in the Valley by 10 percent by 2030. The initiative works with clinic and nonprofit health care centers such as Family Clinic, El Milagro, Proyecto Juan Diego and other clinics in the area. In an exclusive interview with the Rio Grande Guardian, Arjona said he is worried about a decline in the number of patients that come to health fairs hosted by Unidos Contra la Diabetes.The initiative's health fairs include a series of community health clinic partners that also provide educational services. RGV Food Bank provides food and vegetables for the event. The health fairs typically receive an attendance of 300 people but according to Arjona Jr. their last health fair, March 26, “barely had 100 people.” “Ever since the current administration started talking about ICE raids, our population is fearful and does not feel comfortable going out,”Arjona said. “We have to also understand that we have mixed-status families in our community, so maybe grandma, who might be undocumented, is the one that is the babysitter or drives the kids and drops them off at school.”Arjona said the initiative has been told by partners there has been an increase of patients wanting to do doctor's sessions over the phone. Patients are also asking for more prolonged prescriptions for their refills, and an overall absence in patients at the clinics, Arjona said. “It is going to be an impact for emergency rooms and urgent care, which then causes them to spend more money on health care, because it could have been prevented,” Arjona said. “It is going to be a ripple effect for us, and it is kind of scary.”Here is an audio recording of Arjona's remarks during the Prosperity Task Force's webinar.Editor's Note: Go to the Rio Grande Guardian website to read the full story.Go to www.riograndeguardian.com to read the latest border news stories and watch the latest news videos.

In this second part of our two-part series on New York Art Fair Week, William Powhida and Paddy Johnson discuss the standout artworks from Independent, NADA, and Spring Break. Despite the thin crowds and economic challenges explored in Part 1, there were notable works worth celebrating. The conversation highlights vintage game boards at Independent, playful Nancy Drew-inspired paintings at Spring Break, and meticulously detailed highway landscapes at NADA. Most significantly, we explore how the most politically relevant work happened outside the fairs, with an extended conversation of Mitchell Chan's "Insert Coins" – a deceptively simple video game installation that reveals itself as a devastating commentary on capitalism, cryptocurrency, and rigged systems. This piece, along with Open Collective's Ukrainian war karaoke installation, connected to the anxieties of the real world, in a way that seemed largely absent from the commercial fair venues.

Jeffrey Mosher welcomes back Teri Sand, SHRM-CP, PHR, CBSP, CRP, Business Services Manager, Capital Area Michigan Works!, Lansing, MI, but serving Ingham Eaton, and Clinton Counties Theme: Teri talks about the fourth annual DHHS Job Fair, which took place the previous day, and previews the upcoming Juneteenth Job Fair. Question 1: Yesterday was the fourth annual MDHHS Spring Job Fair. Can you tell us about this event, how many employers and job-seekers attended, and how it's changed over the years? The annual DHHS job fair is quickly becoming one of the signature events on the Capital Area's workforce development calendar. MDHHS partnered with Capital Area Michigan Works!; Catholic Charities of Ingham, Eaton & Clinton Counties; and the Lansing Police Department for this year's event. It started in the parking lot of the Ingham County Health Department in 2022, coming out of the pandemic, and featured 20 or so employers, including local government agencies. This year, we had more than 40 employers and [[approximate number of job-seekers]] at the event. The event took place at the Gannon Building on Lansing Community College's main campus to accommodate the number of employers and potential employees. Practically every job sector and industry was represented — public and private, large corporations and small businesses. Question 2: Nowadays, so much of the job search process is digital. Someone looking for work can fill out dozens of applications from the comfort of home, and employers can use screening tools — including A.I. — to zero in on the highest quality candidates. What's the advantage of attending in-person job fairs like these, both for the employer and the worker? First of all, we need to remember that although technology like internet access and smartphones seem ubiquitous, not every job-seeker has access to them. That's why, in addition to helping people fill out digital applications at our American Job Centers, we also teach digital literacy to help people who need to upskill be able to find more job opportunities online. Second, Capital Area Michigan Works! is proud to invite employers who are offering full-time, permanent jobs paying $15 an hour or more. That means the employers have quality jobs to offer. It's our mission to not only help residents of the tri-county area find work, but find good jobs with self-sustaining wages. These employers are also open to hiring from the Capital region's substantial New American population, giving those with limited English proficiency a chance to fully participate in the local economy. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, what's missing from filling out a form on a website and interviewing over Zoom is the human connection between employers and applicants. If employers only look for keywords on resumes and cover letters, they might miss the crucial soft skills that potential employees have to offer. A cover letter and resume emailed to a hiring manager might not convey the passion, drive and integrity that a job-seeker brings to the table. And I think that really speaks to the core of what we do: bridging the gap between employer and employee, creating a human connection that leads to long-term success for both sides. Question 3: For employers or workers who were unaware of this event, do you have any similar opportunities coming up? Where can people find more information? Next month, the Job and Community Resource Fair sponsored by Juneteenth/NAACP Lansing Branch and Capital Area Michigan Works! will take place from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, June 21, at St. Joe Park on Hillsdale Street in Lansing.

The Wisconsin Association of Fairs (WAF) is undergoing a major revamp to ensure the long-term success of the fair industry. Executive Director Jayme Buttke shared that this transformation is a result of careful strategic planning. "Two years ago, our board sat down and asked, 'Where do we want the next level of the fair industry to be?'" Buttke said. "We needed to take a hard look at what WAF provides and where we are going." One of the most significant changes includes a brand refresh, with a new website. "We want to make our online presence more user-friendly and incorporate modern technology," Buttke explained. "It's all about the next group of leaders—whether fair board members or exhibitors."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tune in to this episode with Lila Sullivan, president and co-founder of Flourish Plant, for an engaging discussion about entrepreneurship, innovation, and creating a business rooted in sustainability and care. Lila shares her journey from science fairs at Darien High School to building an eco-conscious plant care company with her childhood best friend, Kate Ferguson. Lila and Kate's entrepreneurial roots trace back to their high school years, where they bonded over science research and competitions. Their shared passion for science and nature sowed the seeds for Flourish Plant. Frustration with synthetic fertilizers motivated Kate to envision a sustainable, non-toxic alternative; the beginnings of Flourish Plant. Lila brings her experience as an executive recruiter to the table, calling it her "mini MBA." Her expertise in understanding business growth, combined with Kate's creativity, has been instrumental in building Flourish. The pair moved to Austin, Texas, a hub for innovation, where they launched their first product: Flourish Organic Houseplant Fertilizer. Flourish's flagship product is made from food waste and byproducts, showcasing their commitment to sustainability. Their innovative approach includes a liquid concentrate formula, designed for simplicity and effectiveness. Starting with a direct-to-consumer model, the team quickly pivoted to wholesale, building relationships with over 250 independent plant stores and garden centers. Their hard work culminated in being featured in Whole Foods, now available in 300 stores across multiple states. Lila credits their success to building relationships, networking, and staying true to their vision, emphasizing patience and action: Lila shares invaluable lessons from her journey: Network Relentlessly: Seek advice from those who have succeeded in similar spaces. Stay True to Your Vision: Balance external advice with your internal goals and resources. Active Patience: Understand that growth takes time and requires consistent effort. With new products in the pipeline and plans to expand into grocery and online marketplaces, Flourish Plant is poised for continued growth. Their mission remains clear: to provide sustainable, high-quality plant care products wherever plants are sold.

The northern side of the state could see some flurries in the next couple of days and Ag Meteorologist Stu Muck gives the details on this lake effect snow. Autonomy is shaping the future of agriculture and full autonomy may be here sooner than we think. Ben Jarboe is joined by Brian Luck, a state extension specialist in biological machinery systems, to clue everyone in on how autonomy will help the labor shortage being seen in the agriculture industry.

Tonight, the Wisconsin Association of Fairs will crown the 59th Fairest of the Fairs. Roughly three dozen young women are in the running for the position.

She reflects on her year as Wisconsin's fair ambassador. You wouldn't believe how busy she was during fair season! But since Kelsey has been attending fairs since she was in diapers, it was nothing out of the ordinary.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello! Please take our end-of-the-season survey at http://strongsenseofplace.com/survey! We'd love to hear from you. Seattle is a mashup of water and mountains — it just might be the ultimate outdoor playground. If you want to go hiking, camping, boating, biking, or meander in a beautiful garden, Seattle is a fantastic place to do all of that. It can also claim a vast realm of ‘firsts' in music, architecture, politics, and literature. (Not to mention Bigfoot sightings, if that's your thing.) There's grunge music, Elvis appearances, the Seattle Seahawks' 12th Man, an inordinate number of sunglasses, and more library cards than anywhere else in the United States.  The city also hosted two World's Fairs: the Alaska–Yukon–Pacific Exposition in 1909 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the Klondike Gold Rush (you do not want to miss the Two Truths and a Lie story about that one!) — and the Century 21 Exposition in 1962. That one tried to predict what life in America would be like in the year 2000 and beyond — which gave us the Space Needle, the Alweg Monorail, and a car shaped like a rocket. In this episode, we learn the stories of a few remarkable Seattle women, celebrate Seattle's superlatives, and share a bookish itinerary for the ‘Most Literate City in the Country.' Then we recommend seven great books that took us there on the page, including an unusual ghost story, a memoir about living in 1950s Seattle, a thriller set in the world of journalism, three graphic novels that will make you want to take a walk, and a modern fable set in the San Juan islands. I Wish I Was Like You by S.P. Miskowski This Boy's Life: A Memoir by Tobias Wolff Deadline Man: A Novel by Jon Talton Seattle Walk Report: An Illustrated Walking Tour through 23 Seattle Neighborhoods by Susanna Ryan Secret Seattle: An Illustrated Guide to the City's Offbeat and Overlooked History by Susanna Ryan Street Trees of Seattle: An Illustrated Walking Guide by Taha Ebrahimi Bear by Julia Phillips For more on the books we recommend, plus the other cool stuff we talk about, visit show notes.

It's the last show of the week as tomorrow night is the first night of some much-needed deep cleaning and weekend redecorating at the studio. So this evening we are just going to continue analyzing media reaction, mental health issues on display, and more. The 250th Anniversary of the United States is being talked about in big ways, which will include state/world fairs, and more! KrisAnne Hall gets on the phone with us in the second half to answer some questions about Income Tax and dissolving federal agencies/departments. Still would like to take calls on who the audience would Hire/Fire, and which initiatives would be your first orders of business, if you were in Trump's shoes!
