Alameda County Supervisors David Haubert, D1 and Supervisor Elisa Mάrquez, D2 are partnering to host a Tri-Cities community Foster Family Support Townhall October 30.
Why? Both Supervisors believe that ensuring foster youth and their caregivers have the support they need is essential for creating a more compassionate society who work together. Educating the community on how they may help in a small way builds a strong and supportive network for foster families.
