Like all nonprofit service organizations, Community Care was severely cut in the California state budget. But they continue to provide outstanding support to so many living in Lake and Mendocino counties.
From their offices in Clearlake, Ft Bragg and Ukiah, Community Care serves more than 400 clients who might otherwise be in nursing or supported living facilities.
These citizens enjoy a quality of life that would not otherwise be possible without the gentle support of Community Care's care managers and nurses.
If you would like to contribute to these worthwhile efforts, please visit www.communitycare707.com and click on the “Donate” button. They also welcome donations by mail to Community Care, 301 S. State St, Ukiah CA 95482. As a registered nonprofit, all donations are tax-deductible.

The discussion will encompass the nature of the "green economy," its funding sources, "green" businesses and jobs now existing in Lake County, and local or regional educational opportunities for people who want to get a "green job."
An expert panel including Supervisor Denise Rushing and "Dan the Solar Man" Felperin will address these subjects and more, with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and bring additional perspectives to bear.
The meeting will be held at Kelseyville High School, 5480 Main St., Room 203, and is free and open to the public as always.
