A Sacramento-area veteran suffered from PTSD. This service dog changed his life

Tony Escue’s service dog Hugh has helped him regain some of the independence he thought he’d lost — and shown him what life beyond constant anxiety could look like. Escue, a 32-year-old Orangevale resident, served for nearly 10 years in the U.S. Army before his medical retirement in 2023. That year, he was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder, after years of symptoms that had made it difficult for him to go places on his own. He turned to Canine Companions, a Santa Rosa-based nonprofit that helps veterans and others by connecting them with service dogs. This led Escue to Hugh, a Labrador mix who is almost 4. Hugh can do everything from turning on lights to tucking himself into the carry-on bag area under an airplane seat so he can ride with Escue, who takes him everywhere. “I was so trapped in my head for so long – years,” Escue said during an interview at Orangevale Community Park with Hugh at his side. “He really helped me to be able to have some independence and have some freedom in my life, and really give my family the freedom that I was worried that they were missing out on.” Why Escue

Sacramento mayor promises school ICE notification policy, but district seeks more

Sacramento Mayor Kevin McCarty pledged to alert school districts when the city learns of nearby federal immigration enforcement activity, reversing his earlier position after mounting pressure from school officials . He called it a “top priority” amid a recent increase in immigration enforcement in the capital region. McCarty said the city would convene a meeting with six capital superintendents to develop a more formal communication process — but Sacramento City Unified leaders said they wanted more immediate action. McCarty told Sacramento City Unified School District Superintendent Cancy McArn in an email Tuesday afternoon that city officials would arrange a meeting with her and five other superintendents whose districts include schools within city limits to discuss “enhanced communication” about nearby U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement activity. But leaders of Sacramento City Unified, which serves most of the city’s students, want additional commitments from the mayor and City Manager Maraskeshia Smith. SCUSD serves most students in Sacramento, but the Natomas, Robla, San Juan, Elk Grove and Twin Rivers school districts also operate schools within city limits. Federal immigration enforcement activity has increased in south Sacramento in recent weeks. After reports that ICE agents detained the father of an Earl Warren Elementary School

After student's father detained, Sac City Unified presses city for ICE alerts

Sacramento City Unified School District leaders said Tuesday the father of an Earl Warren Elementary student was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement the day before, a few blocks from the school. At a news conference, board members urged Sacramento police to alert the district when verified ICE activity occurs near schools. The call came as the district pressed for better coordination after ICE agents in late October were spotted near Ethel Phillips Elementary, causing concern among students and families during after school pickup. “We can prepare for what happens on our campuses. Unfortunately, we cannot control what happens on the streets surrounding them,” school board member Jasjit Singh said Tuesday. “We need timely, credible information. We need direct radio communication between our school safety team and the police department, and we need city sanctuary policies that place students and families at the forefront and are centered around how to prepare and how to respond.” According to Singh, the district learned about the detention through the school, after the principal was informed that the student’s father had been detained. The detention took place near the 65th Street, by St. Mary Cemetery, Singh said. The detention came three days after
