Nurses gather on Welch Road in front of Stanford Hospital to protest for better working conditions. The Committee for Recognition of Nursing Achievement, the nursing union, has set out to renegotiate their contracts in favor of more pay, mental health support, and retirement support. Fred Taleghani, a member of CRONA’s negotiations team, said that although the issues the union was striking for have existed for a long time, COVID-19 made the issues worse. “The pandemic just kind of really exacerbated it [problems] and it also highlighted the fourth major issue that we're dealing with, which is mental health.”

Freshmen, part of Palo Alto High School’s TEAM program, are shoveling excess weeds at Gamble Gardens as part of Paly Service Day. Paly Service Day is an annual event where students are able to participate in community service, but has been canceled for the past two years due to COVID-19. “This year's Service Day was a lot more different because it was finally in person,” YCS-Interact co-president Simona Yau-Chan said.
