Santa Barbara County Supervisor Joan Hartmann has recently introduced a series of forums aimed at cultivating a safer, more informed and more engaged community in Lompoc and the Santa Ynez Valley.
At the Fire Safe Council Wildfire Exposition, Hartmann says residents will gain valuable insights and learn about resources to protect their communities and homes from the persistent threat of wildfires.
Hartmann also announced a Self-Healing and Community Gathering Forum in the Lompoc area dedicated to reducing violence, enhancing youth outcomes, and instigating systemic change within the area. Children are encouraged to attend.
The Lompoc Valley will also be hosting a forum addressing homelessness and another informative session for Lompoc and Solvang tenants will dive into their rights, responsibilities, and the local housing landscape.
