Extra Edition: Children Orphaned During Pandemic.

Millions of children are being left orphaned after one or both parents died of Covid-19. Some call this a hidden and global pandemic within the pandemic. What are the new challenges facing these families? How are they coping with the loss of the breadwinner? What are their needs? Affected family members and a news reporter join this conversation.

Guests: Reyna Cruz, Widow of Farm Worker who Died of Covid, Fresno, CA; “Janet,” Widow of Roof Worker Exposed to Toxic Wildfire Smoke who Died of Lung Disease, Fresno, CA; Nadia López, Reporter, The Fresno Bee/Central Valley News Collaborative, Fresno, CA.
