On The Monday, August 6, 2018 Edition Of Idaho Matters:

  • Using social media to fight human trafficking.
  • Keeping kids safe around water.
  • An Idaho health care wake-up story.

-One Idaho group is trying to fight human trafficking, and is hoping social media can help.
-What do you, and your kids, need to know about water safety? One familiar organization is working on that problem.

-So you think you understand health care in Idaho? One reporter for the Idaho Statesman thought so, until she had a baby. She tells her story on Idaho Matters.

-Olivia Weitz introduces us to folk artists in Idaho with a series of profiles featuring master folk artists and apprentices in the Idaho Commission on the Arts’ Traditional Arts Apprenticeship Program.

As Senior Producer of our live daily talk show Idaho Matters, I’m able to indulge my love of storytelling and share all kinds of information (I was probably a Town Crier in a past life!). My career has allowed me to learn something new everyday and to share that knowledge with all my friends on the radio.
