The Covid-19 Pandemic posed a set of challenges for our community; while we have worked hard to overcome these challenges, there is still some work left to do. The California Community Foundation (CCF) has provided us with the opportunity to give grants to local Community Based Organizations. At Pacoima Beautiful, we created the Socially Organized Leaders Training Institute to help us create a network of these various, diverse community organizations.

As a part of the Regional Recovery Hub Initiative, this program seeks to strengthen community- driven initiatives and programs. Through Pacoima Beautiful, CCF’s grant will help tackle key issues affecting community members in the SFV Region, one of the six regional recovery hubs across Los Angeles County. The Regional Recovery Hubs initiative aims to strengthen and improve the resilience of the San Fernando Valley.

We encourage you to apply and participate in our new cohort of Community Based Organizations. If selected, you will need to send one participant to represent your organization at all eight sessions that are outlined below and provide certification of insurance for your organization. Subsequently, you will need to provide your organizations W9 when you are selected and before collaboration can begin. Please note that all eight sessions will be conducted in English. Additionally, you will need to participate in our PB Resource Fair in August, the date is to be determined. Together we will highlight how important teamwork is and will work towards the common goal of building a strong, healthy, and resilient San Fernando Valley.
