\t\t\t\t\t\"HelloHello Houston: The Commuter Cut<\/p>\n

In today\u2019s edition of \u201cThe Commuter Cut,\u201d we revisit our recent conversations with Houston City Council At-Large 4 candidates Alejandra Salinas<\/a> and Dwight Boykins<\/a>, with early voting for this race happening now through December 9, and Election Day being on December 13.<\/p>\n

Then, we discuss a new study<\/a> that maps out the Houston neighborhoods with limited or nonexistent access to counseling and psychological services, with Dr. Chakema Carmack<\/a>, senior author of the study and an associate professor in the University of Houston’s Department of Psychological, Health, and Learning Sciences.<\/p>\n
