Supervisor's Message By Supervisor Yxstian Gutierrez
Every May, we observe Older Americans Month, a time to celebrate
the contributions of our seniors and reaffirm our commitment to
their health and independence. This year's theme, Champion Your
Health, encourages us to proactively manage our well-being through
preventive care. For many of us, this starts at home. I encourage you
to take advantage of community amenities. They are a great way to
stay active and maintain physical health.
Of course, proper nutrition is just as important, which is why I
provided $90,000 in funding to partner with Bienestar is Wellbeing
for monthly produce distributions in Nuevo, San Jacinto, Cabazon,
and Banning. Our goal is to distribute over 792,000 pounds of fresh
produce.
