Lamont Mobile Office Hours |
|
| Navigating the bureaucracy of the federal government can be frustrating. As your Congressman, one of my most important responsibilities is to serve as a link between you and the federal government. Although I cannot override the decisions made by a federal agency, I can often intervene on a person’s behalf to answer questions, find solutions, or just help cut through the red tape.
These services are available Monday through Friday in my Hanford (Kings) and Bakersfield (Kern) offices. However, I wanted to ensure that all my constituents had access to this opportunity so I began my Mobile Office Program. This program affords residents who are unable to visit my offices the opportunity to meet with my staff and receive services at a more convenient location.
I wanted to let you know that a member of my staff with be in Lamont this coming Monday, September 16 at the Lamont Family Apartments Community Center located at 7022 Di Giorgio Road, Lamont, California 93241 from 12:00 PM to 2:00 PM to provide assistance in any way they can.
I hope you are able to stop by with any questions or concerns you may have. I especially encourage you to get one-on-one assistance if you are having difficulties with a federal agency.
Should you have additional questions or if you would like to schedule an appointment in advance, you can email Gaby Castaneda or call my Bakersfield Office at (661) 864-7736. Pre-arranged appointments, however, are not required and walk-ins are always welcome.

BHC-SK is a 10-year initiative where communities are taking action to make where they live healthier. They are doing this by improving employment opportunities, education, housing, neighborhood safety, unhealthy environmental conditions, access to healthy foods and more. The goal: to build healthy communities for the next generation.
The purpose of the BHC-SK Internship Program is to assist the BHC-SK Action Teams in their efforts to engage the youth and members of the communities of South Kern (Arvin, Greenfield, Lamont, and Weedpatch) in their work. It is also for interns to explore service and career opportunities within their home community, and to help them contribute to the work of BHC-SK and the strengthening of the communities of South Kern.
CCS-SK es una iniciativa de 10 años en la cual las comunidades están tomando medidas para hacer el lugar donde viven más saludable. Están haciendo esto mediante la mejora de las oportunidades de empleo, la educación, la vivienda, la seguridad del vecindario, las condiciones ambientales no saludables, el acceso a alimentos saludables, entre otras cosas. La meta: construir comunidades saludables para la próxima generación.
El propósito del Programa de Prácticas de CCS-SK es ayudar a los Equipos de Acción de CCS-SK en sus esfuerzos para incorporar a los jóvenes y los miembros de las comunidades del Sur de Kern (Arvin, Greenfield, Lamont y Weedpatch) en su trabajo. También es para que los practicantes exploren oportunidades de carrera y servicio dentro de su comunidad de origen, y para ayudarles a contribuir a la labor de CCS-SK y el fortalecimiento de las comunidades del Sur de Kern
