The Alhambra Source is Suspending Publication

The Alhambra Source sought to play an active role as a civic organization, running workshops to train young journalists and community contributors, to help immigrants tell their stories and to encourage financial literacy among college-bound high school students. The non-profit news source will suspend publication on Nov. 15 due to financial reasons.
