Yesterday my Chief of Staff Al Jabbar attended the ribbon cutting of a new Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) at Homeless Intervention Services of Orange County (HIS-OC). This new space will allow them to expand services and provide housing and stability to even more transitional-aged youth in our community.

Congratulations to HIS-OC and thank you for your commitment to helping the Transitional Aged Youth population in achieving housing stability.

Week 3 Highlights from our Youth Career Connections Summer Career and Life Prep Academy🎓✨

This week, students took part in dynamic workshops focused on goal setting 🎯, career and major exploration 💼📚, and even got professional headshots taken 📸 to use for future job and college applications.

They also went on exciting site visits to explore real-world career paths! 🌎
At the Orange County Water District 💧, students learned how clean water is managed and the science behind sustainable water systems.
At Fluor Corporation 🏗️, they got an inside look at how engineers and project managers build major infrastructure and solve global challenges.
And at Santiago Canyon College 🏫, they toured the campus and discovered how community college can be a powerful and affordable path toward their goals.

It was a week full of inspiration, discovery, and growth.Photos from O.C. Supervisor Doug Chaffee's post

Yesterday, I attended the groundbreaking of the Union Pacific Park and Trail in Fullerton.

This project transforms the former Union Pacific Railroad right-of-way into the Union Pacific Trail and Bike Path, connecting neighborhoods and promoting sustainable, active transportation.

As part of the project’s commitment to environmental sustainability, at least 176 new trees will be planted along the trail. This enhanced recreational space will provide residents with a safe and accessible area for outdoor activities, contributing to the city’s long-term vision of creating greener, more connected public spaces.

Congratulations to the City of Fullerton, the City Council, and its residents on the ground breaking of this new park.
