PG&E is proposing another rate hike before the end of 2024. As Erin Hawkins, our Vice President of Programs, highlighted in yesterday's ABC News segment, rising utility costs for essential services deepen inequities and can have devastating impacts on those already struggling to make ends meet. This year alone, Community Action Marin has assisted over 500 households, distributing more than $500,000 in utility assistance from federal and county sources. No one should have to choose between keeping the lights on and feeding their family. We are grateful to Cornell Barnard and ABC7 News for amplifying this urgent issue, and we remain committed to ensuring that every household has the resources to meet its basic needs. ••• PG&E propone otra subida de tarifas antes de finales de 2024. Como Erin Hawkins, nuestra Vicepresidenta de Programas, destacó en el segmento de ayer de ABC News, el aumento de los costos de servicios públicos para los servicios esenciales profundiza las desigualdades y puede tener impactos devastadores en aquellos que ya están luchando para llegar a fin de mes. Sólo este año, Community Action Marin ha asistido a más de 500 hogares, la distribución de más de $ 500,000 en asistencia de servicios públicos de fuentes federales y del condado. Nadie debería tener que elegir entre mantener las luces encendidas y alimentar a su familia. Agradecemos a Cornell Barnard y a ABC7 News que hayan difundido esta cuestión urgente, y mantenemos nuestro compromiso de garantizar que todos los hogares dispongan de los recursos necesarios para satisfacer sus necesidades básicas. #MarinCounty #SanFrancisco #BayArea #ABC7News https://lnkd.in/gZVFxUEM

Celebrating the re-opening of Short School in San Rafael as a dedicated Early Learning Center to ensure bright futures for children! The ribbon-cutting ceremony lifted up a powerful partnership between Community Action Marin and San Rafael City Schools. CAM is proud to provide four high-quality preschool classrooms while SRCS delivers Transitional Kindergarten and Early Intervention programs. Together, our shared focus is on both educational and social service outcomes for children and families that increase well-being in our community. We are grateful for the spirited gathering of San Rafael City Schools representatives, Community Action Marin team members, local leaders, dedicated teachers, enthusiastic parents, and, of course, our wonderful students. It was a moment filled with hope, unity, and excitement for what's to come. Thank you to Superintendent Carmen Diaz Ghysels for your unwavering belief in what's possible. "In partnership with our long-standing partner Community Action Marin, we were thrilled to celebrate the opening of the San Rafael Early Learning Center at Short School!" stated Carmen Diaz Ghysels, SRCS Superintendent. "It was really special to welcome our community, see how the campus has been transformed to serve our youngest learners and to see the result that's been years in the making! We hope this can serve as a model for how districts and community organizations can partner together to best serve children and families and maximize the use of our facilities and resources." Here's to the future of early childhood education in San Rafael! 🌟 Pictured cutting the ribbon is Michelle Fox (Assistant Vice President, Early Education at Community Action Marin) and Lucia Martel-Dow (Board President at SRCS). #EarlyChildhoodEducation #Education #MarinCounty #SanRafael
