Resource Spotlight is a new monthly program designed to connect you with valuable community resources. Each session will feature guest speakers from local agencies who will share up-to-date information on services, eligibility, and contact details. You’ll also have the chance to ask questions and get the information you need in a welcoming, interactive environment. Learn about topics relating to Health & Safety, Nutrition, Support Services, Legal Services, Transportation, & much more!

Whether you’re new to these resources or just need updated information, Resource Spotlight will have it. Sessions will be held at Vista Center in our Conference Room. We’ll even provide light, healthy refreshments to make it a fun and engaging experience.

We can’t wait to help you discover the resources that will enhance your independence and confidence!

Join us for our next session on Wednesday, January 7th, from 1:00 – 2:00 pm.

Featured Organization: Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County to discuss Emergency Preparedness

Description: Members of the Santa Cruz Volunteer Center will be visiting to share helpful information and resources on emergency preparedness. Using materials adapted from the State Disaster Program, they’ll walk us through practical steps to prepare for and respond to a variety of natural disasters. Attendees will receive a preparedness booklet and some helpful giveaways, and volunteers will be on hand to help fill out materials that could make a real difference in an emergency situation. The presentation will also cover the basics of creating a “go bag” and a “stay bag,” so you’ll know how to be ready whether you need to leave quickly or shelter in place.
