Welcome to The Collaborative Bulletin!

 The agency has wrapped up another successful year of activities, programming, and services. At the same time, 2025 was a challenging year due to ongoing issues such as food insecurity; the continued lack of affordable housing; limited access to healthcare, youth services, and economic development; immigration challenges; and barriers within financial institutions. With new federal guidelines, many individuals’ healthcare coverage and food assistance will be impacted. 

As we move forward, the future of the agency’s services and programming will include expanding and clearly explaining the services of our Wellness Center, with support from Community Health Workers (CHW–Mental Health), Community Advocacy training, and the objectives outlined in the People Plan Report. Healthcare access and chronic disease education will be an important part of our strategic plan for 2026–2027.

 As we approach the end of 2025 and look ahead to 2026, the Agency will be reviewing our accomplishments and developing new strategies to continue supporting ongoing programs while planning for future initiatives that will move the Agency forward. This includes the Community Health Workers Pilot Project, Health Education in areas of chronic disease management, Self-Care for Mothers, Youth and Art Programs, the Poetry Group, and our efforts toward Climate Resilience. 

 The year 2026 will be a pivotal one for the Agency. We must develop strategies that help us evolve and grow. As a Family Resource Center, it is essential that we adapt to the changing needs of our community. El Plan del Pueblo/The People’s Plan will continue to serve as our guiding beacon to ensure we remain aligned with the needs of the community.
