Following attacks on two mosques, New Zealand's parliament voted overwhelmingly to ban most semi-automatic weapons.
So far, thousands of guns have been turned in to police as part of a nationwide buyback program.

This. It's hideous that the media is further stigmatizing mental illness by blaming these tragedies on anything other than our nation's lack of gun control.
I haven't decided who I'm voting for yet, but this is an interesting read on Warren's proposed Small Business Equity Fund that would help entrepreneurs and small business owners from underrepresented communities.

Thank you to everyone who made this past week so inspirational. I'm passionate about the work I do at @CivicInnLab and I'm glad to have you all in my tribe as we continue to leverage #techforgood.
To the AnitaB.org #WomenOfColor in Tech conference where I met other innovative women working at the intersection of the #tech and public interest sectors...
To an engaging conversation around how to leverage #tech to address the #OpioidCrisis with @nelsonh and Health 2.0 #LosAngeles...
I finally had some time to reflect after an inspiring and energizing series of events last week. From a meeting of the minds with @BluecanvasTodd, Estelle Reyes, and @wordswithstacy about how to democratize access to #entrepreneurship resources in #LosAngeles...

Spent the morning at @WCoalitionLA meeting learning more about housing rights and how we can support equitable access to affordable housing in LA. We need more prevention efforts if we're ever going to address the homelessness crisis. #affordablehousing
Excited to share the (re)launch of @CivicInnLab as a 501(c)(3) based in #losangeles. Check out where we’ve been and where we’re going at civicinnovationlab.la 🙌🏼
