SUMMARY:Fair Pricing Act 101 Community Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The Fair Pricing Act (S705/A2140) is proposed state legislation designed to bring transparency and equity to hospital pricing. \nIts core mission: \n\n\nStandardize the cost of routine medical procedures. \n\n\nRequire hospitals to publicly justify any additional charges. \n\n\nWhy does this matter? Disparate and predatory pricing is a significant barrier to necessary\, affordable care\, directly leading to delayed diagnoses and poorer long-term health outcomes in our communities. For many—especially groups like AAPI New Yorkers—cost is the main hurdle to seeking routine preventative care. No family should have to choose between medical bills and basic needs like rent or groceries. \nJoin us to discuss how the Fair Pricing Act is a crucial step toward building an equitable and affordable healthcare landscape for all.

SUMMARY:Learning Without Borders: Immigrants Transforming Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a lively discussion on how immigrants are reshaping the landscape of higher education!\n\n\n\nImmigrants have long faced structural challenges when accessing and thriving within educational systems and academic spaces. These include linguistic barriers\, precarious legal status\, limited access to financial aid\, cultural exclusion\, and the emotional toll of navigating institutions not designed for their realities. \nUnder the current political climate\, many of these challenges have intensified due to shifts in immigration policies\, tightening of visa regulations\, and increasing social and economic precarity for immigrant communities. \nIn this conversation\, we will discuss both the historic and structural dimensions of these barriers and the new challenges emerging today. Bringing together scholars\, students\, and advocates\, we will explore how immigrant communities continue to transform academic spaces\, and what possibilities for solidarity\, policy change\, and institutional transformation might shape the future of higher education.

SUMMARY:Simulcast Screening - Vietnamerica
DESCRIPTION:Executive Producer Nancy Bui of the Vietnamese Heritage Foundation joins GETSEA and 25 universities across North America to watch Vietnamerica together simultaneously and connect via Zoom for a discussion with the filmmaker about the Vietnamese diaspora\, their struggle\, and how Master Hoa’s story is a prism to see the larger group. \nVietnamerica follows Master Nguyen Hoa as he returns to former refugee camps in Southeast Asia after three decades abroad to search for the graves of his wife and two children. Having fled Vietnam in 1981 on a boat with his family and friends\, Hoa was the only survivor.
