The Arcadia City Council on Sept. 17 adopted a proclamation recognizing September 2025 as National PACE Month and celebrated Redwood Coast PACE's service expansion into Arcadia. Mayor Alexandra Stillman signed the proclamation, which the council accepted and Barbara Leahy, director of Redwood Coast PACE, accepted on behalf of the program. "PACE is a fully integrated comprehensive model of care that allows older adults who qualify for a nursing home level of care to continue living safely and independently in their homes and communities," the proclamation recited. Leahy told council Redwood Coast PACE, a program of the Humboldt Senior Resource Center, has served more than 650 older adults countywide with day centers in Fortuna, Eureka and now Arcadia; she said the program currently serves between 200 and 369 participants (transcript text contains an inconsistency on that number) and continues to receive calls daily. Leahy described services including coordination of Medicare and Medicaid-covered care, transportation, rehabilitation, meals, social engagement and a rehabilitation gym at each site, and announced fall open houses with an Arcadia event scheduled next Thursday from 4:30 to 7 p.m. The proclamation was presented as a ceremonial recognition; no council action beyond adoption of the proclamation was taken.
