Throughout the pandemic communities have experienced growing food insecurity. Orgs like @foodbankccs have strategically responded to this need by partnering with school districts and other community orgs to get food where it's most needed. @KPNapaSolano is proud to support!
We're proud to partner with @foodbankccs because we align with its mission of serving our community and combating food insecurity. Having access to healthy food leads to better overall health. #KPCares
I am so proud to be part of the @KPNapaSolano team strategizing and deploying this important work and investments into the community!
Thank you to all of our community partners, leaders, and direct service providers. Your dedication and passion fuels me every day!
In @kpnapasolano alone, our 2021 community investment was $95M to address the most critical health needs in our community: COVID-19 prevention and vaccination; food, housing, and economic security; and mental health & wellness. Full report: https://t.co/ryeBKUSW4e #KPCares
Tonight we helped commemorate the @TouroCalifornia 100th CARES Mobile Vaccination Program clinic with close to 200 #COVID19 vaccinations administered at a @VCUSD school. Powerful partnerships to help protect our community. @PartnershipHP@SolanoCountyEMS@Solano_County
Addressing food insecurity is more important than ever. In 2021 @foodbankccs has served 80,000 to 100,000 more people each month than last year and CalFresh application rates have also quadrupled. Proud to partner with @foodbankccs & @VCUSD to get vital resources into community!
We are proud to work with @foodbankccs to help meet this need in our community. Thanks to @VCUSD for allowing us to see how students were helping with the next food distribution.
All #funders: check out this op-ed written by members of the Bay Engaged network, a network of Latinx Funders in the California Bay Area for best practices on for equitable vaccination efforts, focused on the Latinx community. Let's act now!

Here's a look inside the Tiny House Empowerment Village for homeless youth built by @YouthSpiritArts in Oakland. Sean Williams-McCreary gave me a tour of the artwork around the colorful village as residents moved in.
A special heartfelt thank you to Stacey Abrams. Although she goes out of her way to say this has been a team effort -- and indeed, it has been -- every team needs the inspiration and wisdom of a great leader. She has been a great leader.
Infants, even before they can talk, show a preference for examples of helpful behaviour and turn away from illustrations of harm. The conclusion is that basic human nature is positive and kind. Therefore, cultivating warm-heartedness and compassion is something we can all do.
For people who’ve lost their jobs due to COVID-19, CalFresh, California’s food stamp program is a lifeline. @kpnorcal recently awarded grants of $95,000 each to food banks, community clinics and other nonprofits to help enroll people in CalFresh. https://t.co/ouBYAtsCzJ

"It just shows me more and more that the system is not set up for regular people to run, let alone win."
Newly elected Rep. @CoriBush is shining light on the struggles working-class people, especially women, face in getting elected to Congress.
It’s Day One, so I’m wearing my “Breonna Taylor” mask.
A few of my Republican colleagues have called me Breonna, assuming that’s my name.
It hurts. But I’m glad they’ll come to know her name & story because of my presence here.
Breonna must be central to our work in Congress.
Despite some of the highest Covid-19 death rates in America, Navajo Nation increased their turnout and went 97% for Biden...yes, 97%...
We owe them a debt of gratitude in helping to flip Arizona.

As Latinos drive growth in US they will continue to be a force that must be better understood by anyone who wants their vote.
And we’ll need more journalists like @MariaESalinas speaking about the power and nuances of the #Latino vote!
