Advance OC is proud to announce our new board chair, Derek Angelo Serrano, JD, RICP®. We look forward to his leadership and stewardship as we move forward in mission and service.

"I serve others because I see value in others, and Advance OC grants me a deeper opportunity to do both. It is indeed a gift and a responsibility to be a part of something, so I will continue to find new and more significant ways to understand how to make an impact. And with other passionate and thoughtful people at Advance OC, I have a special opportunity, especially in this moment, to be a change maker.”

We're growing!! Advance OC is proud to welcome our newest board member, James Chisum, to the team. We look forward to leveraging his unique skill sets and expertise to help us close social and health disparities in Orange County and beyond.

"As a communications professional primarily focused in health care and social determinants issues, I’ve seen how access and awareness directly shape community well-being. AdvanceOC’s mission to use data, innovation and local partnerships to close opportunity gaps deeply resonates with me. By contributing my background in strategic storytelling and public engagement, I hope to support initiatives that connect resources with the people and neighborhoods that need them most—creating a more inclusive, healthy, and thriving community for all."

We are deeply grateful to our inspiring speakers who shared their insights on housing and homelessness, care coordination and resource navigation, and advocacy and policy design, grounded in the guiding themes Reflect, Imagine, and Believe. Your perspectives and bold ideas sparked thoughtful dialogue about what’s possible when we work together.

To our attendees, thank you for spending your Saturday in community with us and for bringing curiosity, energy, and a shared commitment to addressing Orange County’s most pressing challenges.
