Solving the child care crisis in Nevada, a Congressional District 3 election preview and a needle-exchange program in Elko.

This week host Joey Lovato sits down with reporter Naoka Foreman to discuss the issues facing Nevada families regarding child care in the state. With a shortage of workers and COVID-19 emergency funding sunsetting in 2024, how will Nevada address the growing concerns around child care? After that, reporter Sean Golonka breaks down everything you need to know about Congressional District 3 as the race between incumbent Susie Lee (D) and April Beker (R) heats up. At the end of the show, Kaiser Health News correspondent  Jazmin Orozco Rodriguez joins us to talk about a needle-exchange program in Elko.
