About the Writer

Hi everyone! My name is Maria Garcia. I’m a Community Health student and healthcare professional passionate about public health education, prevention, and helping people better understand the factors that shape health in our communities.

Community Resources

Finding help shouldn’t be complicated. I incorporated this to connect individuals and families with trusted local and statewide resources that support health, housing, food security, mental health, recovery, financial assistance, and other essential needs. Whether you’re looking for help for yourself or someone you care about, these organizations are here to provide support. This will continue to grow as new resources become available and our community’s needs evolve.
