    We take a closer look at what the fatal police shooting earlier this year says about both shortcomings in how law enforcement deals with people experiencing a mental health crisis and access to mental healthcare for immigrants.

    Then, the first episode in a special three-part series: “Finding Home con DACA” from How To LA’s host Brian De Los Santos. We’ll follow his journey as he returns to Mexico for the first time in 30 years under DACA.

    Also, an Easter sunrise service takes us to Mt. Rubidoux, where observers trekked this morning to celebrate the century-old tradition. 

    And, a drag march is held in West Hollywood to protest the wave of anti-LGBT legislation across the country. The Easter Sunday event is a collaboration with faith groups, trans advocates, and drag artists. We hear from the Los Angeles LGBT Center, the organization hosting the event.
