Why NYC nurses went on strike, again

Data Visualization Society February 2026 Visual & Interactive

A project done to teach a mentee about how to collaborate on graphics projects, as part of my mentoring for DVS. Focus was learning how to make a story that is social first but can be read on mobile + web, and breaking news since we created it from scratch in less than a few hours. Also emphasized learning web accessibility and building for screen readers. We scraped the data, hand-drew the visuals, and made data graphics, all while reporting on the ground on the last day of the strike.
