The city of Sacramento discusses safety improvements to Folsom Blvd in East Sac. Also, CapRadio Megan Myscofski’s series on menopause. Finally, Insight’s monthly “Arts Talk” shares events throughout the month.
Improvements to Folsom Blvd in East Sac
The city of Sacramento is planning safety improvements along Folsom Blvd in East Sacramento. The roughly one-mile stretch is heavily trafficked, and has been criticized for not being bike and pedestrian friendly. In 2022, a mother crossing the street to pick up her daughter from Phoebe Hearst Elementary was struck and killed during a crash at the intersection. Following her death, then-Assemblymember Kevin McCarty announced $5 million in state funding to go towards safety improvements between 48th and 65th streets. CapRadio Communities Reporter Gerardo Zavala recently attended a community meeting about the Folsom Boulevard Safety Improvements Project and shares the conversations that took place.
CapRadio’s Series on Menopause
Half the population will go through menopause. Still, many who’ve been through it say they didn’t know much about it, even after visiting a doctor. CapRadio’s Megan Myscofski joins Insight about her series on efforts to change that. The first part of the series focuses on the California legislature wanting doctors to get more educated about menopause symptoms and treatment, which is part of a national trend in menopause-related legislation. This story is supported by USC Annenberg Center for Health Journalism’s 2025 California Health Equity Fellowship.
If you have a story to share about your own experience with menopause symptom treatment, please get in touch. You can fill out a quick survey or email megan.myscofski@capradio.org
Monthly ‘Arts Talk’
