Valley Vision’s ‘Inclusive Economy Poll’

Each year, Valley Vision fields public opinion polls in partnership with Sacramento State’s Institute for Social Research to generate greater understanding of the most pressing issues facing our region. The Inclusive Economy Poll was Valley Vision’s first public opinion poll solely focused on the economic well-being of our eight-county region. Evan Schmidt is the CEO of Valley Vision and joins us with the results of the poll.

New Book ‘Dry Spells’

 

Dr. Archana Maniar was in the throes of frontline care working as an infectious disease physician in Sacramento during the pandemic, when she made a commitment to care for herself through creative writing. And what culminated was a debut fiction novel that draws on her own life’s parallels of calling both the U.S. and Mumbai home. Archana joins us with her novel Dry Spells - described as a culmination of decades of observations of life both in the East and the West, years of studying human nature during stress and sickness, and a love for storytelling.
