Community

CLEARLAKE – Recently Catholic Charities of Lake County, as the lead agency along with Lake County Community Action Agency, Lake Family Resource Center and Community Care, was allocated $1.195 million dollars to assist the almost-homeless and homeless in Lake County.

So as to understand the parameters of this Homeless Prevention and Rapid Re-housing “HPRP” grant and what it can and cannot provide, please join us for a general information session with the public at large, other nonprofit agencies that assist the homeless, Healthy Start, Lake County Office of Education, hospital staff, police, fire, city and county officials and more.

It will be held at City Hall in Clearlake from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m. on Friday, Oct. 23, in the conference room.

As a preliminary to this session, please consider visiting www.srcharities.org as it outlines the steps of the program in Sonoma County and will be very similar to the work the group will accomplish in Lake County.

Brian O’Callaghan  and Linda Pomeroy of Catholic Charities Santa Rosa will facilitate the presentation and answer questions.

MIDDLETOWN – Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts are part of a venerable tradition still very much active in the Middletown area, and an update on their activity will be offered at the next Middletown Luncheon Club program on Wednesday, Oct. 21.


Speakers are Michelle Meese, community development director for Lake County Girl Scouts, and William McVay, Scoutmaster of Boy Scout Troop 315.


Middletown Luncheon Club programs start at noon in the social hall of the Middletown Methodist Church, 15833 Armstrong at Washington, Middletown.


Lunch is only $5 per person with proceeds going to the serving group. All programs are open to the general public. This month’s serving group is the Stonehouse Historical Society.


If you don’t know about the Middletown Luncheon Club (MLC), here is the perfect opportunity to tap into the 108 year continuum of community. MLC meets every third Wednesday of the month from January through November.


A nonprofit organization is selected to provide lunch, and there is a different program each month to keep things lively and informative.
