This Friday we honor Juneteenth—a day that commemorates freedom, resilience, and the enduring pursuit of equality and justice for all.

Juneteenth marks the day when the last enslaved African Americans learned of their freedom, more than two years after the Emancipation Proclamation was issued. It serves as both a celebration of liberation and a reminder of the work that continues to build more equitable and inclusive communities.

At Community Resource Project, we believe strong communities are built when every individual is valued, respected, and given the opportunity to thrive. As we reflect on the significance of this day, we encourage everyone to take time to learn, listen, celebrate, and honor the rich history and contributions of Black Americans.

In observance of Juneteenth, CRP offices will be closed on Friday, June 19. Regular business hours will resume on Monday June 22, 2026.

Wishing everyone a meaningful and reflective Juneteenth.

Community Resource Project is proud to stand alongside nonprofit leaders and advocates in support of SB 1240, with our Executive Director, Wilfredo Cruz Jr., actively supporting this historic effort every step of the way.

Yesterday, SB 1240 officially advanced to the Senate floor - bringing California one step closer to establishing the Office of Nonprofit Empowerment (ONE), a first-of-its-kind office designed to strengthen collaboration between the state and its nonprofit partners.

A huge shoutout to CalNonprofits and Jennifer Fearing for leading and championing this movement to strengthen and uplift California’s nonprofit sector. Thank you as well to Jillian Keegan from CalCAPA for helping move this important effort forward.

Special thanks to Senator Jerry McNerney for introducing and championing SB 1240, legislation that represents a major step toward improving coordination across state agencies, advancing nonprofit equity, and supporting the 109,000+ nonprofits that strengthen California’s communities, economy, and social fabric every day.

On May 14, 2026, Community Resource Project proudly joined fellow Community Action Agencies from across California for the 2026 CalCAPA Advocacy Day at the California State Capitol.

Together, we stood united to advocate for critical programs and legislation that protect and strengthen our communities - including the urgent call to preserve and expand LIHEAP funding and support essential State bills impacting low-income families across California.

A major focus of the day was advocating for continued investment in energy assistance and weatherization programs through LIHEAP, ensuring vulnerable households can access safe, affordable utilities and critical home services.

We also highlighted important legislation including SB 1240, SB 924, AB 1832, AB 2348, SB 881, and SB 1422 - all aimed at improving access to services, reducing poverty, supporting nonprofits, food security, healthcare access, and strengthening community systems.

We extend our sincere gratitude to California Community Action Partnership Association for organizing this impactful day and for their tireless leadership in advocating for California communities.

Thank you to the legislators, senators, and assemblymembers who joined today’s conversations and continue fighting for policies that uplift families and protect vital resources.
Community action works — and this day was a powerful reminder that when we come together, our voices create change.

We were honored to welcome The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Deputy Under Secretary for Food, Nutrition, and Consumer Services, Patrick Penn, and Western Region Administrator Muzafar Makhdoomi to Community Resource Project’s WIC office.

During their visit, they observed clinic operations, connected with frontline staff and a WIC participant, and engaged in thoughtful discussions around best practices, program integrity, and vendor partnerships. They also had the opportunity to see firsthand the new WIC food package as it rolls out in grocery stores across California.

We’re grateful for the time they spent learning about the work happening on the ground—and for the collaboration that strengthens our ability to serve families in our community. Thank you to our State WIC partners and CRP team for coordinating a meaningful and impactful visit! 💙
