With today's orders from two federal judges on SNAP/CalFresh benefits, it is likely that CalFresh benefits will not be received on schedule for Nov. 1. There is still no clear timeline for their restoration. If you can, please consider giving back to your local food bank in whatever way you're able.

The Ventura County Star recently celebrated their milestone 100th anniversary. It was a pleasure to look back at their extensive documentation and vivid storytelling of Ventura County's history. The importance of the role local news outlets play cannot be overstated. Here's to many more years ahead!
