Published January 22, 2021 1:34 PM

CALEXICO, Calif. (T3) - La Coalición de Equidad y Justicia del Valle Imperial notó que el autobús de pruebas de COVID iba a Calexico menos que a otras partes del Valle Imperial, por lo que decidieron hacer algo al respecto.

La coalición comenzó a abogar por más pruebas, pero también más accesibles. El condado de Imperial reconoció que había disparidades.

"El autobús pasaba más tiempo en ciudades como Brawley, pero los casos de COVID más altos están en Calexico", dijo Luis Flores, organizador. Por eso ahora habrá más paradas en Calexico.

Gianella Ghiglino

Peruvian-born and LA raised Gianella Ghiglino joins the team from the San Fernando valley. “LA is the place that taught me how to breath and Peru is my breath.” She says she was inspired by the community she grew up in and began documenting her experience through poetry at the age of 7. “I wrote about everything I saw, felt and everything that inspired me.” When she entered High School she joined her school news station and realized that broadcast journalism allowed her to pursue her passion and her purpose all at once. Gianella attended Cal State Northridge and received a Bachelors degree in Broadcast Journalism and a minor in Spanish Broadcast Journalism, and Political Science. She did several internships while in College but most notably interned for PBS’s local LA station for three years. “My purpose is to share my story and of those in my community, my passion is writing.”
