Yesterday, October 15, 2026, St. Vincent de Paul of Contra Costa County was proud to participate in the very first Los Medanos Health Area Grantee Poster Showcase! 🌟📊
This inaugural poster session was a special opportunity to highlight how the Los Medanos Health Area Program is actively promoting wellness and expanding vital health resources throughout the Los Medanos service area in East Contra Costa County.
We were also excited and inspired to hear remarks from an incredible lineup of local leaders:
Dr. Grant Colfax, Contra Costa Health Director
Supervisor Shanelle Scales-Preston, Contra Costa County District 5 Supervisor
Mayor Dionne Adams, Mayor of Pittsburg
Arlene Kabata, Pittsburg City Council Member
From food security to direct community outreach, SVdP’s volunteers are on the ground making a difference every day. We are deeply grateful for the Los Medanos Health Area Program’s support, and for our shared compassion in helping our neighbors in need thrive. 💙🤝
Here’s to wellness, partnership, and building a healthier community for all!
