Lamont Mobile Office Hours for David G. Valadao

Lamont   Mobile Office Hours
Navigating the bureaucracy of the federal government can be   frustrating. As your Congressman, one of my most important responsibilities   is to serve as a link between you and the federal government. Although I   cannot override the decisions made by a federal agency, I can often intervene   on a person’s behalf to answer questions, find solutions, or just help cut   through the red tape.

 

These   services are available Monday through Friday in my Hanford (Kings) and   Bakersfield (Kern) offices. However, I wanted to ensure that all my   constituents had access to this opportunity so I began my Mobile   Office Program. This program affords residents who are unable to   visit my offices the opportunity to meet with my staff and receive services   at a more convenient location.

 

I   wanted to let you know that a member of my staff with be in Lamont   this coming Monday, September 16 at the Lamont Family   Apartments Community Center located at 7022 Di Giorgio Road, Lamont,   California 93241 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM to provide   assistance in any way they can.

 

I   hope you are able to stop by with any questions or concerns you may have. I   especially encourage you to get one-on-one assistance if you are having   difficulties with a federal agency.

 

Should you have additional questions   or if you would like to schedule an appointment in advance, you can email Gaby   Castaneda or call my Bakersfield Office at (661) 864-7736.   Pre-arranged appointments, however, are not required and walk-ins are always   welcome.

Sincerely,

David G. Valadao
Member of Congress

Health Happens Here Shirts

BHC-SK is a 10-year initiative where communities are taking action to make where they live healthier. They are doing this by improving employment opportunities, education, housing, neighborhood safety, unhealthy environmental conditions, access to healthy foods and more. The goal: to build healthy communities for the next generation.

The purpose of the BHC-SK Internship Program is to assist the BHC-SK Action Teams in their efforts to engage the youth and members of the communities of South Kern (Arvin, Greenfield, Lamont, and Weedpatch) in their work.  It is also for interns to explore service and career opportunities within their home community, and to help them contribute to the work of BHC-SK and the strengthening of the communities of South Kern.

CCS-SK es una iniciativa de 10 años en la cual las comunidades están tomando medidas para hacer el lugar donde viven más saludable. Están haciendo esto mediante la mejora de las oportunidades de empleo, la educación, la vivienda, la seguridad del vecindario, las condiciones ambientales no saludables, el acceso a alimentos saludables, entre otras cosas. La meta: construir comunidades saludables para la próxima generación.

El propósito del Programa de Prácticas de CCS-SK es ayudar a los Equipos de Acción de CCS-SK en sus esfuerzos para incorporar a los jóvenes y los miembros de las comunidades del Sur de Kern (Arvin, Greenfield, Lamont y Weedpatch) en su trabajo.
