Community Connection Events - Postponed Until Further Notice Due to Pandemic
The Department of Social Services and Veteran Services host a community outreach event twice a year regionally in San Luis Obispo County.
The Community Connection Outreach Event excels in connecting the most vulnerable population of San Luis Obispo County to vital resources. At our one-stop shop event we will link participants to difficult-to-obtain services including health care, behavioral health, employment assistance, legal assistance, and much more.
Community Connection Outreach Events are postponed until further notice, due to the COVID pandemic.
