Recently, our community, in partnership with Friends of Port Chicago National Memorial, the East Bay Regional Park District , #MilitaryOceanTerminalCConcord, and the National Park Service gathered to commemorate the 82nd anniversary of the Port Chicago Explosion, the catalyst for the desegregation of the U.S. military, and the birth of the Civil Rights Movement. We celebrated the exoneration of the Port Chicago 50 by former Secretary of the Navy Carlos Del Toro, after decades of advocacy by many in attendance and those who have gone before us. We honored the 320 lives lost in the tragedy and the survivors whose efforts for safer conditions illuminated the harmful consequences of segregation to the rest of the country. We also remembered the residents of Port Chicago whose town was permanently destroyed as a result of the explosion. As we pause to celebrate this bending of the moral arc of the universe toward justice, let us strengthen our resolve to ensure that this important history is never forgotten and that every American is treated with dignity and respect.

I was thrilled to join in the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony celebrating the opening of the Behavioral Health Campus at 1034 Oak Grove Road here in Concord! This new behavioral health campus represents another important step forward in expanding access to compassionate, timely mental health care and support for our community. During my time on the City Council, @City of Concord, California and the Concord Police Department have been closely partnering with Contra Costa Health on the Anyone, Anywhere, Anytime Crisis Response Program—better known as A3. The following services will be provided: at the Behavioral Health Campus:

The Behavioral Health Access Line- a call center that connects residents with behavioral health services.
The Behavioral Health Connect Clinic, where individuals can receive an assessment, address immediate needs, and be connected with ongoing treatment and support.
The Behavioral Health Peer Respite, a short-term, community-based setting that offers a safe and welcoming place for guests to rest, connect with peers, participate in wellness activities, and receive support while navigating a crisis. This service will be available on upon referral.

For more information on A3 and the Behavioral Health Campus, please visit: www.cchealth.org/A3.

Over the past six and a half years, I have been proud to see more artwork being beautifully painted on utility boxes around town, by local artists! This is an initiative that I began working on approximately nine years ago with Council colleagues, members of the @Concord Art Association, our Public Works Department, and supportive Concord small businesses. Now, we are convening Phase 4 of the Concord Utility Box Art Project, with the theme, "Beauty of Concord." A utility box can be sponsored for $1,000. Won't you join me in supporting this beautification of our city? For more information and to submit your concept for consideration please visit: https://www.concordartassociation.org/concord-utility-box-project-2026
