SUMMARY:Latin Jewish Film Festival
DESCRIPTION:An Evening with Ruth Behar: Adio Kerida Screening\, Q&A and Book Signing \nThe 2026 Latin Jewish Film Festival opens with one of the most beloved works in Latin-Jewish cinema. \nAdio Kerida (Goodbye Dear Love) is a deeply personal documentary by acclaimed filmmaker\, anthropologist\, and MacArthur Fellow Ruth Behar — a search for identity and history among Sephardic Jews with roots in Cuba. Intimate interviews with Sephardic Jews in Cuba and Cuban Miami\, woven together with family stories and probing footage of dilapidated Jewish cemeteries and new Judaic rituals in Cuba\, create a filmic memoir that offers a uniquely poetic and humanistic anthropological vision. \nDate: April 23 \nTime: 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. \nLocation: CSUN – Armer Theater \nCost:  \n$10 CSUN Alumni tickets (use code CSUNALUMNI) \n$18 – Individual tickets \nFollowing the screening\, Ruth Behar will join us in person for a moderated Q&A — a rare opportunity to hear directly from the filmmaker about the making of this intimate and celebrated work\, and what it means to hold two homelands in your heart. \nThe evening concludes with a book signing of Behar’s Across So Many Seas\, her luminous memoir tracing a Sephardic Jewish family’s journey from the Ottoman Empire to Cuba to the United States — a story of belonging\, loss\, and identity across centuries. (Books available for purchase for $10) \nPurchase Your Tickets Here!\nJewtina y Co.’s Latin-Jewish Film Festival takes place across Los Angeles\, celebrating Latin-Jewish identity through cinema. Three carefully curated films will be screened over two months\, bringing together Los Angeles’ Jewish community for an exploration of multicultural Jewish identities\, Latin American culture\, and meaningful cross-cultural dialogue. \nHosted at venues throughout the city\, the festival highlights diverse Jewish narratives from Latin America\, fostering cultural understanding and community connection. It creates essential spaces for Latin-Jewish young adults and community members to see their experiences authentically reflected on screen — while building bridges across Los Angeles’ varied Jewish communities.

SUMMARY:18th Annual Environmental and Occupational Health Technical Symposium
DESCRIPTION:18th Annual Environmental & Occupational Health Technical Symposium: Risk Assessment\, Communication\, and Lessons Learned from the Los Angeles Fires \nThe 2025 LA Fires were unprecedented in their timing\, intensity\, and destructiveness. Massive losses of urban structures created complex exposures and lingering contamination that have significantly slowed recovery. Equally unprecedented\, however\, was the response. State and local health agencies\, academic and professional communities\, and affected residents mobilized in new ways. Communities self-organized to share resources\, and local philanthropies stepped in to support recovery efforts. \nJoin experts from LA County Public Health\, the Department of Toxic Substances Control\, USC and UCLA engineering and earth science programs\, industrial hygiene professionals\, and community advocates as they share their lessons learned. Speakers will discuss how risks were assessed\, hazards communicated\, and what this disaster revealed about protecting public health during large-scale urban wildfires. \n  \nDate: Tuesday\, March 10 \nTime: 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m \nLocation: CSUN University Student Union\, Northridge Conference Center \n18111 Nordhoff St\, Northridge\, CA 91330 \nCost: Varies – See below for details \nGeneral Admission $175.00\nIncludes: Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\nParking\n0.8 Continuing Education Units *Must be present entire presentations\nClose: 2/27/26 \nCSUN Alumni $160.00\nIncludes: Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\nParking\n0.8 Continuing Education Units *Must be present entire presentations\nClose: 2/27/26 \nCSUN Faculty/Staff $50.00\nIncludes: Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\nClose: EOD 3/10/26 \nStudents – Free\nIncludes: Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\nClose: EOD 3/10/26 \nOnsite/Late $200.00\nIncludes: Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks (no parking)\n0.8 Continuing Education Units *Must be present entire presentations\nOpen: 2/28/26 Close: EOD 3/10/26 \nREGISTER HERE\nSPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES \nProgram Co-Sponsor – $500\nIncludes:\n• 2 Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\n• 2 Parking passes\n• Exhibit table at event\n• Logo in digital program\n• Onsite signage \nTable Top Exhibit – $400\nIncludes:\n• 2 Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\n• 2 Parking passes\n• Exhibit table\n• Logo in digital program \nFood & Beverage Sponsor – $350\nIncludes:\n• 2 Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\n• 2 Parking passes\n• Logo in digital program\n• Signage at food tables \nDigital Program Ad – Half Page – $300\nIncludes:\n• 1 Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\n• 1 Parking passes\n• Half-page ad in digital program \nDigital Program Ad – Quarter Page – $200\nIncludes:\n• 1 Breakfast\, lunch\, snacks\n• 1 Parking pass\n• Quarter-page ad in digital program \nVendor Unable to Attend – $100\nIncludes:\n• Logo in digital program \nPURCHASE A SPONSORSHIP PACKAGE HERE\nContact Hannah Labra to learn more about sponsorship opportunities. \nAgenda\n8:30 a.m  Welcome and opening comments \n9 a.m.        Community Engagement and Science Translation: Early Lessons to Improve Health Communication among Vulnerable Groups: Savanna Carson\, PhD\, Director of Community Research\, UCLA CTSI Community Engagement & Research Program and Katherine McNamara\, PhD\, CIH\, Associate Professor\, CSUN EOH Department \n9:30 a.m.   Protecting Vulnerable Workers: Alice Berliner\, Director\, LA County DPH Office of Worker Health and Safety; and Ivy Torres\, UCLA Labor Occupational Safety & Health Program \n10:30 a.m.  Panel – Assessing the Indoor Environment: Michelle Rosales\, MPH\, CIH\, Director of Environmental Services\, Forensic Analytical (moderator)\, Patrick Moffatt\, President\, Blue Sky Environmental and the Building Restoration Institute\, Stephen Long\, Forensic Analytical Consulting Services\, and Ana Raya\, Esq.\, Neighborhood Legal Services of LA County \n12:00 p.m. Lunch \n1:00 p.m.   Public Health Wildfire Response: Nichole Quick\, MD\, Chief Science Officer\, Janet Scully\, MPH\, Office of Environmental Justice and Climate Health\, and Remy Landon\, MPH\, Senior Advisor\, Los Angeles County Department of Public Health \n2:00 p.m.   Agency Collaboration and Coordination: Kathryn Butler\, MPH\, Director\, and Valerie Hanley\, PhD\, Senior Toxicologist\, Department of Toxic Substances Control \n3:00 p.m.   Community Soil Testing and Hazard Mitigation: Sanjay Mohanty\, PhD\, Associate Professor\, UCLA School of Engineering and CAP.LA\, Max Teirstein\, Project Adminstrator\,USC CLEAN and Erika Garcia\, PhD\, MPH\, Assistant Professor\, USC Department of Population and Public Health Sciences \n4:00 p.m.   Key Lessons from the 2025 LA Fires\, an Insurance Perspective: Paul Brady\, ARM\, CWMS\, Wildfire Insights and Mitigation and ISA Certified Arborist\, and Jim Jirsa\, AI and Analytics\, Green Shield Risk Solutions \n4:45 p.m.   Closing comments \nWe welcome those who require visual\, auditory or mobility assistance to attend.
