Show Notes
The National Institutes of Health continues to cut research funding. One UC San Diego professor was one of many researchers impacted by the cuts after the NIH defunded a project focused on intimate partner violence and maternal mortality.
Also, April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. We check in with local groups about how they are supporting survivors of sexual violence in San Diego, and the role of community resilience and prevention education.
Guests:
- Rebecca Fielding-Miller, assistant professor, Herbert Wertheim School of Public Health and Human Longevity Science at UC San Diego
- Jessica Valencia, training and education specialist at CARE at Sexual Assault Resource Center, UCSD
- Vale Magaña, school-based coordinator, Center for Community Solutions
- Andrea Mapula, advocate for sexual assault services and justice specialist, Center for Community Solutions
