Dear Neighbor,

In the spirit of the holiday season, our office is once again hosting a Toy Drive benefiting families in need in our community. 

To participate, please drop off a new, unwrapped toy (or several!) at the West Valley Food Pantry on December 14th. Please note that this is a drive-thru event and COVID-19 safety protocols will be enforced. Toys will be distributed at a later date to families in need.

Dear Neighbor,

Over the past several months, I’ve been fighting hard to bring desperately needed assistance to workers and small businesses in our community.

As part of that effort, we have secured additional funding for the California Small Business COVID-19 Relief Grant Program. Nonprofit cultural institutions that have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic can apply for grants of up to $25,000.

The deadline to apply is this Wednesday, September 8, at 11:59 pm.

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused major challenges for both renters and landlords in our community. Thankfully, I’ve been able to work with my colleagues in the State Legislature to extend eviction protections through September 30, 2021. We’ve also allocated billions of dollars in rent relief to help renters and landlords who need financial assistance.

Dear Neighbor,

Starting today, all Californians 16 and older are eligible for a COVID-19 vaccination. Getting vaccinated is an easy (and free) way to protect yourself and your family and help put the pandemic behind us.

What to Do

You can book an appointment by visiting the state’s official vaccine website at MyTurn.
