AI is moving fast, and the questions around it keep getting bigger. New concerns include the environmental impact of the AI build-out, the absence of any regulatory framework to contain a rapidly evolving technology, and the potential for AI to wreak havoc in the short term, or even unseat homo sapiens from our perch at the top of the food chain in the longer term.

We’re welcoming UC Berkeley Professor Fernando Pérez to our next Common Ground event, “AI and Us as Humans: A Perspective from the Scientific Community,” to help us make sense of it all. We’ll explore how the proprietary approach to AI in the US compares with the open-source approach in China, and what lessons we can learn from how the scientific community has approached other technological developments over the last few decades, building open technologies that benefited all of society.

📆 When: November 6, 2026 | 5:30-6:30 PM (Doors open at 5 PM)
📍 Where: Casa Mani Resort Napa Valley

New funding is open for Napa County nonprofits serving people with developmental disabilities. 💙

The William A. and Theresa N. Boughn Fund was created through a generous bequest from the Boughn family in honor of their daughter, Melissa Ann Boughn, who lived with developmental disabilities and spent nearly four decades as a resident of Vine Village.

Melissa's life was enriched by local nonprofits. Her parents entrusted us with carrying that legacy forward — investing in the organizations that help people with developmental disabilities flourish in the community they call home.

We are seeking proposals from Napa County nonprofits that provide residential care, housing and independent living supports, healthcare and behavioral health services, employment and recreational opportunities, transportation, or other daily living supports for people with developmental disabilities.

We welcome both general operating support requests and program-specific proposals.

📅 Proposals due September 30, 2026
💵 Up to $50,000 (budgets $1M+) or $25,000 (budgets under $1M)

Welding technology student Sean Jones is ready. At 26, after a childhood spent moving from home to home, city to city, he’s finally found where he’s meant to be. “This time I’m going to college, and I’m taking all the right classes, and everything is making sense,” Sean said. “It’s like for once in my life…I’m all A’s…it’s clear, it’s understandable, and I just love school.”

Antoniues spent years working his way up at an urban w**ery in downtown Detroit before coming to Napa for harvest in 2023.

His goal? Transfer to Cal Poly, then bring everything he's learned home to Michigan, where he wants to be at the forefront of a growing w**e region.
