Organic community garden established in San Ber nardino nourishes body, mind

F

amilies in San Bernardino enjoyed a Thanksgiving bounty of fresh fruits and vegetables they grew themselves thanks to Loma Linda University Health’s donation of a one-acre parcel to establish an organic community garden and outdoor activity center — aiming to improve nutrition and mental wellbeing among the underserved.

The city of San Bernardino is one of Southern California’s food deserts — areas where people have limited access to affordable, nutritious food due to poverty, food insecurity, access to grocery stores and lack of transportation.

Garden2.jpg “Jardín de la Salud,” Spanish for “Garden of Health,” is an initiative of the Loma Linda University Community-Academic Partners in Service (CAPS), part of the Insti-

tute for Community Partnerships (ICP), to provide wholesome produce and safe outdoor green spaces to the local underserved population.

volunteered to be garden leaders, responsible for overseeing other volunteers, assisting with plot development and opening and closing the garden space.

tural effort has become a hub for sustainable organic production and distribution, community health and economic development and nutrition education.

Nearly 30 families received plots of land this summer to grow their own organic fruits and vegetables.

Produce like tomatoes, bell peppers, chilis, eggplant, zucchini, beans, carrots and beets are being grown, feeding four or more people in a home.

Estudillo-Fuentes says a community planting area has recently been established, where fruits and vegetables grown are sold at the garden’s market — bringing fresh, organic produce at a low price to the community, helping to sustain the garden’s costs. The market is held the first Tuesday and third Sunday every month. Next summer’s garden harvest is estimated to fill 250 boxes of produce to be distributed to San Bernardino families in need, EstudilloFuentes says.

“Jardín de la Salud is truly a place where we focus on health, community building, mental health, nutrition, food justice, environmental justice and empowerment,” Estudillo-Fuentes says.

“This garden and green space al-

Reynoso First and foremost, Reynoso plans to walk door-to-door over a few months period (COVID-safe, of course) to engage with each constituent in the 5th ward to introduce himself as their representative, and listen to what residents envision for the future.

“One of my biggest priorities is to not only engage the community in a way that has never been done before, but to also strengthen their stake in our community. There are over 30,000 people in this ward, so it’s important to visit every single door to let people know that I represent them,” continued Reynoso.

Along with engaging the community, another priority of Reynoso’s is to increase smart development, by implementing regulations on warehouse development.

Applegate we address all of their needs.

This response is especially important in these uncertain times of distance learning,” Applegate said.

Applegate credits her father as one of her first inspirations to attain a higher education.

“As I was growing up, my father always said, education is the great equalizer; he instilled the value of education in me very early on,” Applegate said. “I grew to understand how empowering and important a good education could be. I learned quickly that with a good education came opportunity and choices, something my parents didn’t have enough of growing up.”

She said that if her parents were afforded the same education that she was, they would have had so many more options and opportunities in life, something that she sees in her students and families.

“Both my parents were extremely intelligent people and would have accomplished so much more if they had the opportunities I have been afforded. I see them in my students and families, and I am committed to providing those valuable, life-changing learning opportunities to help our students achieve their fullest potential,” said Applegate.

As much work that is thrown her way, Applegate finds nothing more gratifying than to see students succeed.

“There is nothing more rewarding than seeing former students graduating from college, working in a field they love and making a difference in the world. Our district employs many of our former students in several capacities, and it’s especially exciting to see our students coming back interning, becoming teachers in our district, and serving our community in a variety of ways. It’s very rewarding to serve our students, families, and community,” concluded Applegate.

Applegate is an alumni of Aquinas High School, California State University, San Bernardino and Azusa Pacific University.

“I want to visit the idea of a warehouse moratorium, in terms of policy. There are so many areas within our community that cannot afford another warehouse,” said Reynoso. “These warehouses can no longer be filled with temporary employment, starvation wages, and sweatshop conditions; this is unacceptable. I want a Community Benefits Agreement (CBA) with any and every major development.”

The acquisition of a community benefits agreement would ensure local hires first, a limit on temporary employment and also assist in the health of the city, another pivotal area of interest to Reynoso.

“There’s an irresponsible logistics movement happening now.

Our city literally makes America’s e-commerce possible, and people outside of this county fail to realize that laborers (our peo-

ple) are not being treated well.

There are tens of thousands of diesel trucks running through our neighborhoods everyday releasing toxic emissions into our air…it’s not the drivers’ fault, it's the city’s fault. Everyone is not being protected as much as possible. People over profit, always,” Reynoso declared.

He also anticipates to lead a shift in bringing more skilled jobs into the city that pay a livable wage, to navigate away from dead-end jobs that cannot sustain economic advancement.

In-regards-to the tight election, which was officially certified on December 1, Reynoso held 52 percent of the votes, while Nickel obtained 48 percent.

“I am grateful. Initially I was anxious…when the first numbers were reported I was down by 25 votes, then two hours later I was down by only 4 votes; and then the next morning I was leading by over 40 votes. It honestly still feels surreal and I’m so proud of how I ran this grassroots campaign with only a good friend as my treasurer. I was not competing at the same level financially, as my opponent. I didn’t even have a campaign manager, just passion,” concluded Reynoso.

Final certified numbers of the election indicate Reynoso garnered 4,873 total votes, while incumbent Nickel 4,367.

Reynoso will be sworn in as San Bernardino’s 5th Ward Councilman right before the San Bernardino City Council meeting on December 16.

Assemblymember Eloise Goméz Reyes appointed Majority Leader

S

peaker Anthony (D-Lakewood) announced last week he is appointing Assemblymember Eloise Goméz Reyes (D-San Bernardino) as Assembly Majority Leader for the 2021-2022 Session.

“In her time in the Assembly, Assemblymember Reyes has proven herself to be an outstanding legislator and a natural leader,” said Rendon. “On a personal note, she’s also been a wonderful friend.

I am happy to welcome her to the important role of Majority Leader.

Her strong work ethic and progressive ideals will benefit every Californian.”

Pictured from left: Assemblymember James C. Ramos (D-Highland), Speaker of the California State Assembly Anthony Rendon, Assemblymember Eloise Gómez Reyes (D- San Bernardino), and San Bernardino Community College District Trustee Frank Reyes.

“I am honored to have been chosen as Majority Leader and want to thank Speaker Rendon for his trust in me and his steadfast leadership in keeping the Assembly focused on delivering real results for the people of California. I also must thank the communities of the 47th Assembly District that sent me to Sacramento to make sure

that their voice was heard, and I have endeavored from my first day to respond to their needs and fight for a California for all.

“I am humbled to have been the first Latina to open a law office in the Inland Empire and now the first Latina to be named Assembly Majority Leader.

“The coming Legislative session will be challenging as we will begin our work in the midst of a third wave of the Covid-19 Pandemic requiring additional safety protocols and limitations. However, these challenges will only strengthen our resolve to respond to the needs of Californians as through challenge comes opportunity. The Assembly, working with our partners in the Senate and the Governor will be developing plans to get people back to work and create new economic opportunities, ensure efficient distribution of the Covid-19 vaccine and protect our social safety net,” stated Reyes.

San Ber nardino County to receive $208 million in SB1 funding

T

for three vital transpor tation projects

he San Bernardino County Transportation Authority (SBCTA) has secured $208 million in SB1 funding for three crucial projects designed to reduce congestion, improve air quality and increase public safety.

The funding approval, from the California Transportation Commission (CTC), follows last year’s allocation of nearly $300 million in SB1 grants to San Bernardino County. The statewide legislative package, adopted in 2017, invests $54 billion over the next decade to fix roads, freeways and bridges in communities across California and puts more dollars toward transit and safety.

The newly approved funding includes: o $119 million for the Interstate 15 Express Lanes project, a partnership with the Riverside County Transportation Commission to connect express lanes across the county line. o $65 million for the West Valley Connector, a 35-milelong bus rapid transit project that will connect the cities of Pomona, Montclair, Ontario, Rancho Cucamonga and Fontana.

o $24 million for a three-mile extension of the Interstate 10 Truck Climbing Lane from the off-ramp at Live Oak Canyon Road to just east of the existing County Line Road.

“We’re grateful to CTC’s commissioners for their commitment of SB1 funding to San Bernardino County and three projects that will have a lasting impact on mobility, access and safety in one of the fastest-growing population and economic centers in the U.S.,” said SBCTA President Frank Navarro.

During the pandemic, essential workers have become public heroes. These frontline workers include tens of millions of retail employees, from those who stock our grocery shelves to those filling orders for Amazon.

One of our priority goals is an Essential Workers Bill of Rights, which would guarantee improved health and safety protections, universal health care, increased pay and paid leave, and whistleblower protection.

With so many people seeing firsthand how low-wage workers make our society function, we have a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to transform our society so that everyone can earn quality pay and benefits.

Workers also need a real voice in policy matters that affect our lives, from union organizing rights to personal protective equipment. So we’re pushing to get worker representation on corporate boards.

But there's hope on the horizon.

Pfizer and Moderna just announced their experimental vaccines proved more than 90 percent effective in clinical trials.

People in the highest risk categories -- namely, healthcare workers and those with chronic illnesses and disabilities -- will receive prioritized access to these vaccines. That's as it should be.

Putting them at the front of the line for a vaccine is a way to collectively acknowledge that their lives matter.

But unfortunately, when it comes to diseases other than COVID-19, society doesn't show nearly the same level of concern for people with disabilities and chronic illnesses. In fact, many self-styled healthcare experts have proposed "reforms" that would limit these individuals' access to treatments.

That's wrong, plain and simple.

By now, it's well known that

conditions and disabilities. Of the roughly 250,000 Americans who've lost their lives, 94 percent had another condition listed as a factor in their cause of death.

COVID-19 patients with intellectual or developmental disabilities have died from the virus at roughly twice the rate of the general patient population.

These vulnerable patients could soon face even more challenges if health insurers listen to groups like the Institute for Clinical and Economic Review (ICER).

The influential non-profit has appointed itself as an arbiter of new drugs' cost-effectiveness. ICER recommends a "fair price" for medications based on the analyses it performs.

To conduct these cost-benefit analyses, ICER uses a controversial metric called a "quality-adjusted life year," or QALY. A treatment that adds a year of perfect health to a patient's life pro-

lar, the more valuable ICER considers it.

In theory, QALY assessments provide an objective way to quantify a drug's effectiveness -- and ensure that patients, insurers, and taxpayers are getting a good bang for their buck.

But in practice, these assessments discriminate against patients with disabilities and chronic illnesses. That's because patients with certain chronic diseases and disabilities may never achieve a full QALY. A drug could completely alleviate the patient's symptoms -- but wouldn't deliver a full QALY. In other words, ICER uses its QALY metric to devalue the lives and well-being of vulnerable populations. And ICER's clout cannot be underestimated. If it considers a drug to not be cost-effective, insurers may listen and deny the medication to those who need it most.

The dangerous consequences of ICER's pseudoscientific evaluations don't end there. By placing such a low value on these treatments, ICER discourages biopharmaceutical firms from investing in drugs that disproportionately benefit Americans with disabilities.

ICER isn't alone in signaling that drug companies shouldn't waste their time on treatments for Americans with disabilities. The outgoing Trump administration is still pressing forward with its efforts to tie Medicare drug reimbursements to the artificially low price of drugs in Canada and Europe, where price controls have long restricted patients' access to new medicines. If the administration's changes were implemented, investors could pull the plug on research projects targeting rare diseases.

Americans agree that the most vulnerable patients deserve priority access to COVID-19 therapeutics and vaccines. It's time for people to recognize that these vulnerable populations deserve access to treatments for other conditions as well.

NBA Offseason: A Summary

he NBA offseason is just about over, and with the season rapidly approaching, it’s time to summarize the biggest moves of the offseason, and how they will affect this upcoming season.

We start with the draft. Some notable picks include: Anthony Edwards to Minnesota, LaMelo Ball to the Hornets. Ball has a very high ceiling and very low floor, but his potential is undeniable.

James Wiseman to the Warriors.

The Memphis big dominates in the paint, but will have to develop his jumpshot to become a star.

Onyeka Okongwu to the Hawks.

The former USC Trojan is very versatile and will fit well with Trae Young.

Deni Avdija to the Wizards. The European forward is Luka Doncic-like and could prove to be the steal of the draft.

RJ Hampton to the Nuggets.

Hampton was ranked top 5 going

Free agency and trades also shook up the league. 6th man of the year runner up Schroder was moved to the Lakers. Dwight Howard and Demarcus Cousins found homes in Philadelphia and Houston, respectively. Jrue Holliday was sent to Milwaukee to help Giannis.

into last season, but fell to the Nuggets in the draft. He’ll have a lot to prove.

Nico Mannion to the Warriors.

Nico will learn from Steph Curry, which will surely prove to make him a good player, but his game still has a lot of transitioning to do.

Another player to take note of is Markus Howard of Marquette. He went undrafted, but was quickly signed. He may be small, but his 30 PPG average in college shows he can get buckets despite the size.

It’s the defense that’s the major question mark.

Meanwhile teams like the Hawks and Pistons filled their roster with players in hopes of turning around their franchises. The madness also continued while I’m writing this.

As it has been reported that Russel Westbrook will be going to the Wizards in exchange for John Wall.

All these moves have the potential to change what happens this season.

In conclusion, this offseason was absolute chaos... And it may not end, as rumors of a James Harden trade are brewing. However, after a short 2-month offseason basketball is ready to start back up, and the championship is up for grabs.

“On behalf of Jovi’s Diner, we are grateful to have been recognized as one of the best small businesses of the year,” said Jovanna Rodriguez. “We will continue to strive to serve our community, with the support of our elected officials, and hope to make a positive impact on our customers for years to come.”

Casa De Bernardino

Flores,

San

Established in 1974, Casa De Flores is owned and operated by Inez Lucero. Located in San Bernardino, the shop represents Inez Lucero’s love of flowers and the family spirit that has kept the store in business all of these years.

In 2008, Casa De Flores was chosen as the business of the year by Hispanic Lifetime Magazine at the Mission Inn, Riverside.

Over the years, Casa De Flores has established itself as a longstanding staple in the San Bernardino community. Furthermore, on several occasions, the flower shop has found different ways to give back and help the community which made it a success. For example, over the years the shop has donated prom dresses to local high schools as well as donated computers to students. With the current fluctuations in business, Casa de Flores may have scaled down operations but they are still open and providing the same service they have been providing for the past 46 years.

In total, 21 small businesses were selected as finalists from through-

out the community for the Small Business of the Year award which honors small businesses of the 47th Assembly District. “Congratulations Jovi’s Diner and Casa De Flores for being chosen as the 2020 Small Businesses of the Year for the 47th Assembly District.

And congratulations as well to our finalists selected from the many nominations,” said Assemblymember Reyes. “Small Businesses are the backbone of our economy.

Together we must renew our commitment to small businesses in the State of California because as they thrive so do our local economies.”

“On behalf of Casa De Flores, I am grateful to have been recognized for our work over the years,” said Inez Lucero. “I have been blessed with the opportunity to run our business for the past 46 years and I will continue to run it for as long as God lets me.”

ourt Appointed Special Advocates (C.A.S.A.) of San Bernardino County and Neighborhood Partnership Housing Services (NPHS) have been named as the 2020 Bank of America Neighborhood Builders awardees in the Inland Empire. The nonprofits were selected for their work to address issues fundamental to economic mobility, specifically providing affordable housing and support services to underserved communities and pathways for foster youth to education.

As an awardee, each organization receives a $200,000 grant, a year of leadership training for the executive director and an emerging leader on topics ranging from strategic storytelling to human capital management, as well as a network of peer organizations across the U.S., and the opportunity to access capital to expand their impact.

“As we consider the challenges that Inland Empire communities are facing – from the health crisis brought on by the coronavirus to the need for progress on racial equality and economic opportunity – the Neighborhood Builders program is a relevant and timely initiative to support the communities we serve,” said Al Arguello, market president, Bank of America. “This program enables partners like NPHS and CASA to not only continue to serve our communities, but also to expand their focus during the pandemic, making greater strides in addressing

fast evolving issues such as affordable housing and homelessness, wrap around services and support for at-risk youth in underserved communities.”

“While we continue on a safe and steady pathway to recovery from the pandemic, there are still vulnerable communities facing exceptional challenges,” said John Valdivia, Mayor of San Bernardino. “Organizations like Court Appointed Special Advocates (C.A.S.A.) helps San Bernardino’s foster youth attain basic resources they need to succeed in life, and the grant from Bank of America’s Neighborhood Builder’s program will help them overcome additional pandemic-related challenges so that these children and young adults can continue on their path.”

C.A.S.A. of San Bernardino County trains and supervises local community volunteers to serve as Court Appointed Special Advocates for children and youth in foster care, providing one-to-one mentoring, and educational, healthcare, and welfare advocacy.

Foster youth who have a C.A.S.A. advocate achieve 90% high school graduation rate, compared to the national average of only 54%.

C.A.S.A. also provides services for foster care alumni ages 18-24 for their successful transition into adulthood. The Neighborhood Builders grant will help fund the hiring of additional staff and create a new Development Department and Communications and Marketing Department that will

The Neighborhood Builders grant will be used to hire two onsite case workers, a food pantry and a computer lab at NPHS’s new 23-unit affordable housing development for chronically homeless, Sunrise at Bogart.

“We are very grateful for Bank of America’s investment,” stated Clemente Mojica, CEO, NPHS. “The funding will support Sunrise at Bogart, a 23-unit permanent supportive housing development in partnership with the City of Riverside.

San Manuel Band of Mission Indians partners with Claremont Graduate University to support healthier communities in I.E.

C

laremont Graduate University (CGU) announces one of the largest gifts in its nearly 100-year history—$14 million—from the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians in Highland, CA, to purchase the Huntley Bookstore building at the heart of The Claremont Colleges, a unique group of institutions in U.S. higher education.

An iconic example of mid-20th century architecture, the building will serve as the home of the Yuhaaviatam Center for Health Studies, an innovative, multi-disciplinary health research center rooted in a health and well-being initiative launched more than a year ago.

Bearing a name that means “People of the Pines” (which refers to the original inhabitants of the area who are the ancestors of the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians), the center will facilitate the collaboration among CGU researchers, scientists, and outside partners to address health and well-being challenges especially prevalent in underserved, vulnerable populations of the Inland Empire and Indian Country.

Meeting a Need for Proactive Health Research CGU is located on the threshold of the Inland Empire, a region

with a high prevalence of chronic disease where many underserved residents lack sufficient health coverage or awareness of the benefits of wellness and preventative care.

When residents need a doctor, they face challenges to access due to an overstressed healthcare system. Such underserved populations include Native American communities, which historically have higher rates of diabetes, obesity, heart disease, mental health issues, lack of overall wellbeing, and other chronic conditions.

San Manuel’s collaboration with CGU demonstrates how partnerships can provide a strong and effective framework to address longstanding social inequities.

Discussion of this historic gift began in 2019 but was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, and it comes at a time when such partnerships are needed to produce even more meaningful responses to public health challenges.

CGU President Len Jessup said the partnership between CGU and the tribe will make it possible to create “powerful new collaborations on preventive and proactive responses to the kinds of chronic illness affecting so many today.”

Future research at the center, he

added, will address “many of the ‘underlying conditions’ we’ve been hearing about during the pandemic. It’s our hope to eventually produce the kinds of research at this center that will help prepare everyone, especially our most vulnerable populations, for the challenges of another global crisis.”

Integrating Many Disciplines Under One Roof Today, scholars across CGU’s seven schools and divisions are conducting innovative research on proactive and behavioral approaches to disease prevention and designing health-driven technologies improve accessibility to health management programs by underserved populations.

that kind of engagement on our campus.”

because of its own past economic and health-related struggles.

San Manuel’s partnership with CGU builds on a relationship with the university dating to 2006 and the establishment of the university’s Tribal Administration Program. That program provides intensive training in areas of management as related to tribal governance and administration.

“In our role as stewards of our ancestral lands, we support our neighboring communities, in addition to our Tribe. For generations, low-income communities and underserved populations have needed quality healthcare. Our gift is an investment in future healthier communities and one we are happy to make,” said San Manuel Tribal Chair Ken Ramirez.

The Huntley building also will serve as that program’s home and the location of an envisioned tribal community governance and jurisdiction center focused on health, well-being, and other issues affecting Indian Country.

Improving Lives in the IE and Beyond

These efforts along with those of outside partners will come together in the Huntley Bookstore building, a 23,000 square-foot facility, which has served as The Claremont Colleges’ central bookstore for 50 years. The School of Community & Global Health will serve as the anchor tenant.

Plans for the center’s collaborative environment include bringing together university scholars, outside partners, and leaders of outreach programs focused on integrative health and advanced research to improve healthcare for vulnerable populations.

“Real, substantial breakthroughs happen when people from many disciplines come together and collaborate. That’s the hallmark of our transdisciplinary philosophy,” Jessup explained, “and the purchase of the Huntley makes it possible to create such a space for

The focus won’t be on the Inland Empire alone but also extend to the L.A. Basin, which is home to the largest population of Native Americans found in an urban area of the U.S. The tribe understands the obstacles facing many of the region’s underserved communities

Deron Marquez is the former San Manuel Chair, a CGU alumnus, and member of the university’s Board of Trustees. He believes that the center’s work will resonate far beyond Southern California.

“The types of health and wellbeing research that will be tackled by the center are relevant to the needs and situations of so many today. Its benefits will ripple out,” Marquez said. “To bring together the university’s pioneering approach to research with San Manuel’s philanthropic vision is truly exciting.”

San Ber nardino County Economic Development looks to bolster local filming as official county film of fice

F

or fiscal year 2019-2020, San Bernardino County benefited from an economic impact from the film industry of more than $10 million, which accounted for 200 applications and 354 days of filming.

Now to further bolster that impact the San Bernardino County Economic Development Department is the official film office for the County providing a one-stop-shop service to the entertainment industry.

Filming permits are required for all commercial filming and commercial still photography done in

the unincorporated areas of San Bernardino County, or when facilities are used that belong to, are managed by or are under the jurisdiction of the County.

A number of notable projects were shot in the County over the last year. These included: critically-acclaimed series Homecoming (filmed in Crestline); Jay Leno’s Garage television show (filmed in Fontana); television series 9-1-1 Season 3 (filmed in Lucerne Valley); FX drama Old Man starring Jeff Bridges (filmed in Crestline); HGTV television show House Hunter’s Interna-

tional (filmed in San Bernardino); along with commercials for Kia (filmed in Chino) and Volkswagen (filmed in Trona).

Natalia Paez, producer, Shades of Grey, an agency that works with lifestyle brands, said, “We had not shot in that part of California. The San Bernardino County team was instrumental in moving our photo shoot forward. Not only did they help with the basic permitting information, they also helped us find the perfect street location for one pivotal scene that was proving difficult to find. I hope more clients choose to shoot

California issues limited Stay at Home Order due to hospitalizations

I

t would appear that residents in San Bernardino County and all other Southern California counties will be adapting to a new Stay at Home Order in response to a rapid growth in COVID-19 cases and a substantial increase in hospitalizations and ICU admissions. The new order is expected to go into place as soon as tomorrow and will initially remain in place for three weeks.

• Campgrounds (for overnight stays) • On-site dining at restaurants (take-out, pick-up and delivery only) • Hotels and motels except for critical infrastructure support In addition, the new mandate limits retail stores to 20% capacity, and eating or drinking inside stores is prohibited. The new rules also ban non-essential travel, but outdoor recreation facilities will remain open

In his press conference today, Gov. Gavin Newsom said the state is experiencing more coronavirus cases since the pandemic began, and the concern is that the statewide hospital system will become overwhelmed. The litmus test for the health order is whether a region in the state is showing 15% or less ICU (intensive care unit) capacity.

Schools that have received waivers permitting them to provide in-person instruction are allowed to stay open. Doctors and dentists may also continue seeing patients.

The new order segments the state into five separate districts. San Bernardino County will be part of the Southern California district, which also includes Imperial, Inyo, Mono, Orange, Riverside, Los Angeles, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.

“This is a very unfortunate development, but necessary in light of current trends,” said Porter.

“The key objective is to keep our hospitals and ICU units from being overrun with new cases. The fact that our numbers are actually worse than what we saw in April should give everyone pause.”

San Bernardino County has now reached over 85% of ICU capacity – which is similar to neighboring counties -- and Public Health Director Corwin Porter is expecting the state will announce the Stay at Home Order tomorrow for Southern California. This will mandate the closure of the following within 24 hours:

Still, Porter noted that state and county officials are still encouraging people to go outside for various forms of exercise.

• Indoor and outdoor playgrounds • Personal care services, including hair and nail salons and barbershops • Indoor recreational facilities • Family entertainment centers • Museums, zoos and aquariums • Bars and wineries • Youth sports

“We are very mindful of how staying inside and isolated can negatively affect people’s mental health,” said Porter. “We advocate getting outside for a walk around your neighborhood, a run, a bike ride or to walk your dog — being sure to maintain social distancing and follow other well-known safety measures.”

Newsom also announced that the state has earmarked an additional $500 million in relief funds for businesses, with grants of up to $25,000 being provided to small businesses, nonprofit organizations and cultural institutions.
