CG feature on ABC seen by millions of viewers!

For everyone who hasn't heard yet, Common Ground was featured Wednesday evening, March 1st, I believe, on ABC's Nightline news.

This is BIG! Mainstream media finally acknowledging the work of Common Ground, brought into living rooms across the nation. You can watch an online stream (I'm not sure how long it will be available) at: [link]

The 7-minute feature is really cool and positive. A quote from the reporter: "The government couldn't save this place, but we've found a remarkable group of Americans who just may..."

Included is footage of Malik, saying "We have served over 60,000 people without any local, state, or federal support ... That's what make America great. It's not because you're the strongest nation, or the most powerful, or the richest. The greatness of America is its people. And the greatness of the American people is their humanity."

Who would have imagined these words broadcast through corporate media? Things are looking up....

CG Clinic featured in Mother Jones magazine

There is a great article about Common Ground Clinic in the March/April issue of Mother Jones magazine. You can read it online at: [link] And be sure to check out the extended version: [link]

It was brought to my attention because a friend saw my picture included in the print edition of the article. I was doing Reiki on a patient at the clinic when the photo was taken. There are more photos included in the print edition than online, if you can get your hands on one.

Solidarity in the Common Ground vision...
