A waitlist is more than a number. 💚

It can mean a neighbor waiting for a meal, a caregiver waiting for support, or an older adult waiting for care.

Behind every waitlist is a person, a family, and a need in our community.

Local decisions can shape how community services respond to growing needs. Take time to learn about the issues, consider what matters to you, and make your voice heard.

Learn. Care. Participate. Vote. 🗳️

Costumes or no costumes, every child deserves a chance to play and feel included.

This Halloween, we’re celebrating the imagination and joy children bring to our community. Thank you to the families, early educators, and neighbors who make space for every child to participate in their own way.

Wishing you a safe and joyful Halloween from Community Bridges!

⏰ Fall back! It's that time of year again!

Daylight Saving Time ends Sunday, November 1! Don't forget to set your clocks back one hour.

As the days get shorter, changes in daylight can affect our sleep, energy, and daily routines. A few simple habits can help make the transition a little easier:

- Get some natural sunlight during the day.
- Stick to a consistent sleep schedule.
- Stay active and make time to get outdoors.
- Give yourself a little time to adjust.

And don't forget to enjoy that extra hour of rest! 🍂

💚 Today, we honor the life and legacy of Dolores Huerta, a trailblazing labor leader, civil rights activist, and lifelong advocate for justice and equality.

As co-founder of the United Farm Workers, Dolores dedicated her life to standing up for farmworkers, families, and communities whose voices deserved to be heard.

Her words, “Sí, se puede,” continue to inspire generations and remind us of the power of coming together to create meaningful change.

Our hearts are with her family and all those whose lives she touched. Her legacy will live on. 💚

Huerta co-founded the United Farm Workers union to improve working conditions in the nation's fruit and vegetable fields and coined the phrase "Sí, se puede!" that became a widespread rallying cry.

🌧️ El Niño: Are You Prepared for This Winter?

With a strong El Niño expected this winter, it's important for our communities to stay informed and prepared for potential severe weather.

The County of Monterey, in partnership with the National Weather Service and local agencies, recently shared a presentation discussing what to expect this winter and how the county is preparing.

💚 Staying informed is an important step toward keeping our communities safe.

With this winter expected to have a strong El Nino pattern, DEM in partnership with The National Weather Service, Water Resources Agency, and Department of Public Works, Facilities and Parks give a detailed presentation on what to expect this winter.
