People's congratulates Tashira Lott on her acceptance into the 2026 cohort of the African-American Leadership Institute! 👏🏾✨

Tashira, HR Manager at People’s Community Clinic, has been selected for this 10-month leadership journey dedicated to developing African-American leaders who are committed to service, growth, and making a meaningful impact in their communities.

AALI Austin is known for its depth, strong community, and transformative approach to leadership development. Even more powerful is its commitment to access, ensuring financial barriers do not stand in the way of talented, driven leaders who are ready to show up and serve.

Leadership like this strengthens communities.

We can’t wait to see the impact ahead.

Huge thanks to the Xi Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma for donating over 400 children’s books to People’s Community Clinic’s Reach Out and Read program! 💙📚

Because of this generosity, young patients get more than a checkup; they leave with a brand-new book and encouragement to build strong reading habits at home. Reach Out and Read™ helps support early brain development, language skills, and a lifelong love of learning, starting in the exam room.

Want to be part of the magic? New or gently used children’s books can be donated to People’s anytime. Visit our north location at 1101 Camino la Costa and drop off your donation in either lobby bin.

Turns out earwax isn’t just… earwax. A new BBC Future article explores how its chemical makeup could offer clues about infections, neurological conditions, and even certain cancers. Researchers say it may one day be used as a simple, non-invasive health screening tool.

Science is full of surprises! Read the full article in the first comment.
