I just watched a great show on my local PBS channel, KCET (LA).

It had two segments that I'd like to share with my fellow DUers, one on hospitals and the other on the California Conservation Corps.

Please take a look at them, I think you'll find them as interesting as I did.

The state of hospitals in southern California

"One recent study showed that the number of hospital beds per resident in southern California is lower than in Louisiana after Katrina."

California Conservation Corps

"For over three decades, the California Conservation Corps has offered job training to thousands of once aimless young men and women and then put them to work planting forests, building trails and responding to natural disasters."

1. Sounds great. Sorry I missed 'em

2. They're short, but they're online with related links.

Very interesting.

I made a point to watch the hospital story, but stayed to watch the CCC story.
