Description

New York State is settling a class-action lawsuit brought by low-income homeowners who claimed they were denied access to free legal assistance while battling foreclosure. Meanwhile, police say they've arrested a 17-year-old boy for the shooting and killing of another 17-old last week in the Bronx. Plus, it's been four years since Covid officially became a global pandemic and so much has changed in all of our lives in terms of how we work, live, communicate and how we grieve. In response, New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy signed a bill into law this past January that mandates high schools teach students about grief and loss. But schools like Union Catholic in Scotch Plains, have already been teaching their students about grief for years. WNYC’s Michael Hill speaks with Dr. Jennifer Dixon, who directs Union Catholic High School’s counseling program, and 17 year old student Ava Pickering to learn about the process.
