Pomona Connect

07/27/2023

Starting during the pandemic, the idea of Pomona Connect came about as a way to help reach more of our community to communicate the flood of resources that became available from the Federal and State level to help with COVID related challenges, like rent and food. Chara Swodeck, Joshua Swodeck, and Cat Goytia helped build Pomona Connect and connect the community with these much needed resources. As this program transitions into the City of Pomona's Community Services, we want to show our gratitude for all their work.
