LACMA's Patient Care Foundation to Present the 2023 Shine the Light Media Award to Kristine Lazar and KCAL 9 News, at the Los Angeles Healthcare Awards on Dec. 1!
Advocating for people without a voice, KCAL 9 News and the outstanding work of Kristine Lazar have earned the esteemed recognition of the Shine the Light Media Award at the Los Angeles Healthcare Awards. With a commitment to shining a light on crucial health-related issues and providing a platform for individuals who often go unheard, KCAL 9 News has become a beacon of advocacy and information in the healthcare landscape.
Kristine Lazar, an integral part of the KCAL 9 News team, has been at the forefront of this effort. She was instrumental in the inception of the "On Your Side" franchise, which brings forth stories of consumer justice that directly impact the welfare of the community, ensuring they reach the public. The impact of her work extends beyond traditional news reporting; it's about making a difference in the lives of those facing health challenges and advocating for those who are less fortunate and have no voice.
This prestigious award pays homage to the unwavering dedication and outstanding contributions of KCAL 9 News and Kristine Lazar, who continue to serve as advocates for the voiceless, ensuring that important issues receive the attention and support they deserve. Their tireless efforts have left an indelible mark on healthcare awareness and wellness in the Los Angeles area.
