Members of Cal Fire CZU's Strike Team paused for a photo after more than 24 hours fighting the Palisades fire in Southern California. They described the shift as "an incredibly tough firefight with unrelenting winds."

In today's newscast, Monterey County teenagers are at risk of losing access to health information programs after federal funding cuts.  And, Cal Fire firefighters won’t be getting a salary boost.

Before joining KAZU, Ngozi covered health, business and economy stories for WYSO in southwest Ohio and The Ohio Newsroom. She’s also worked as a freelance reporter for Reveal, The New Humanitarian and other outlets.
