As part of the 2014 California Endowment Health Journalism Fellowship, a program of USC’s Annenberg School for Journalism and Communication. I'm producing a series of pieces about Californians who remain uninsured after the roll-out of the Affordable Care Act.
The first is this piece which ran Wednesday, April 16th on The California Report:

And on Latino USA on May 16

California leads the nation in the number of people getting insurance through the Affordable Care Act. But now that the final deadline has come and gone on Tuesday, millions are still left uninsured. These people will still turn to community clinics and public hospitals for care — they are the safety net institutions that serve Californians with nowhere else to go. But as the ACA is implemented, those institutions are facing changes.
