Faith in the Valley- Kern

We love to see our elected rep’s listen and choose to side with community voices. Mike Karbassi exhibited bold leadership when he supported Advance Peace in 2020 and now he’s supporting residents of Trails End in their historic effort to keep the land in hands of the community!

Trails End community is looking forward to welcoming councilmember Mike Karbassi tomorrow @ 6pm for dinner and conversation. The kids are excited and making him thank you notes. We’re grateful he is on the side of residents and wants this land in community hands.

Give #TrailsEnd residents a chance to explore Resident Owned Communities as an alternative.City of Fresno ask the Court to oppose the sale! You have the power to influence the case. #Housing4All #SaveTrailsEnd Learn more about ROCs here: bit.ly/FresnoROC

Don't abandon #TrailsEnd Mayor Jerry Dyer! Oppose the sale and give residents a fighting chance to explore an alternative solution that will save their homes and community. #Housing4All #SaveTrailsEnd

Trials End residents are fighting for their homes, for their community, and for a BETTER City of Fresno for ALL #Fresno renters and bank tenants!! City of Fresno oppose the sale and help lead Fresno toward #Housing4All #SaveTrailsEnd Mayor Jerry Dyer

We believe in a Kern County Budget that is fair, equitable, & invests in rural communities. American Rescue Plan funding is a one-time allocation that can make a difference underserved communities like Casa Loma, Hilltop Fuller Acres,  Lamont, & South East Kern.  #KernBudgetForAll
