I have received messages from my constituents regarding the contract extension for MHA in Santa Ana. The complaints said the homeless looking for MHA services are loitering and trying to camp in the neighborhood. No contract extension.
On February 1st the Orange County Board of Education approved by unanimous vote a Parental Bill of Rights policy. This policy was offered by Orange County Board Trustee for District 1, Jorge Valdes.

On last Friday I visited the Samueli Academy in Santa Ana. Amazing school. Looks like a Junior College, they house foster kids on site and provide them with everything. Great stats, 90% Latino students, 90% graduation rate of foster kids, 96% attendance. @ocboardeduc @maribarke
