Community programs serve thousands despite summer challenges
During a recent government meeting, officials reported on the progress and challenges of various community support programs. For the spring semester, seven vocational students were served, with plans to enroll more in the fall through partnerships with Lewis and Clark, SWIC, and Employment and Training. However, no students are currently enrolled for the summer.

Youth programs have seen some activity, with three participants in collaboration with the YWCA and summer camp through the Venice Park District. The Riverbend Family Ministry has served 68 youth, while the YWCA's summer program has reached five participants. Notably, the GED programs are being discontinued, and no scholarships have been awarded to date.

In terms of assistance, the report highlighted that 48,000 individuals received food assistance, and 154 clients benefited from home-delivered and congregate meals. The rapid rehousing program has supported 64 individuals, and transportation services have provided bus tokens and car repair assistance to 49 families.

Financially, as of July 8, the organization reported spending 39% of its budget, with direct client assistance at 43% and administrative costs at 46%. The meeting concluded with a call for questions regarding the programs and financials, indicating ongoing engagement and transparency in community service efforts.
