Sign On Letter • Email Your Supervisor • Attend Board of Supervisor Meeting Tuesday, June 3/Wednesday June 4
It’s budget time again! This year’s budget fight is real; the current federal government has made cruel cuts to grants, a significant source of funding for Santa Cruz County’s Health and Human Services (HHS) department, which is forcing that department in turn to propose cuts. However, our county has options! The pain of these cuts could be shared amongst other departments!
Like last year, we are asking individuals and organizations to sign on to our community letter, Santa Cruz County: Budget Our Values, because people-centered services save lives and money by June 8th.
We are also asking people to write a personal email to the Santa Cruz County Supervisor, and to show up at the Board of Supervisor’s meeting on next week (Tuesday-Wednesday, June 3rd/4th) for the hearings to make public comment. Please see our toolkit for a complete guide to both of these actions!
