Need food? Second Harvest is here to help!
If you or someone you know needs food assistance, please visit feedoc.org/need-food to find a pantry near you. There are almost 300 pantries throughout Orange County offering food free of charge.
You can also contact 211 Orange County by dialing 211, texting 898-211 or visiting 211oc.org for additional support.
Please note: Second Harvest does NOT distribute food directly to community members out of our Irvine location.
I had the pleasure of joining Auditor- Controller Andrew Hamilton for a press conference announcing the launch of OCUnclaimed.gov, a new website that allows residents to easily find their unclaimed property.
Unclaimed property can include forgotten bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance proceeds, and even the contents of safe deposit boxes. While the State of California currently holds over $14 billion in unclaimed property, nearly $700 million of that belongs to individuals, families, and businesses right here in Orange County and finding out is fast, free, and secure.
Visit OCUnclaimed.gov to search your name and collect your assets. If you've lived in other parts of California, go directly to the State Controller's at Sco.ca.gov and see if you have any unclaimed property waiting for you.Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post
Last week, Office Ambassador Paulette Chaffee attended the grand opening of UCI’s new health clinic.
The Brea Outpatient Center offers world-class specialized ear, nose, throat, and eye medical care for a wide range of conditions. A team of experts from UCI Health and Gavin Herbert Eye Institute are dedicated to offer top-notch care to all patients. Attendees were offered tours of the clinic and the state-of-the-art facilities that will soon be available to patients requiring ENT or ophthalmology care.
Thank you to UCI Health and Gavin Herbert Eye Institute for bringing life-saving resources to Orange County residents. We wish you the best of luck and success in the future.Last week, Office Ambassador Paulette Chaffee attended the grand opening of UCI’s new health clinic.

This past Saturday, we held a Community Resource Fair and Workshop at Dale Junior High School in Anaheim to support Fourth District community residents.
We are pleased to share that we served over 150 families. Attendees were able to listen to Immigrant Defenders Law Center speak about constitutional rights and provided families with a preparedness toolkit. Attendees were also able to obtain resources, receive food and giveaways, and enter to win raffle prizes. Finally, the first 100 attendees were able to get a pair of Nike shoes.
Thank you to our partners, the Office of Immigrant and Refugee Affairs, United Across Boarders, Dale Junior High, and our local community partners for providing valuable resource information, food, Know Your Rights presentations, and more! Thank you to our attendees as well for participating!Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post
