The Fresno County Board of Supervisors at its July 8 meeting proclaimed the week of July 11, 2025, as Eligibility Worker, Job Specialist and Appeal Specialist Appreciation Week and proclaimed July 20–26, 2025, as Pretrial, Probation and Parole Supervision Week in Fresno County.
The board also recognized the 20th anniversary of Project First Step, which the board described as an organization that provides free legal representation to survivors of domestic violence in Fresno County.
In separate actions, the board adopted a resolution declaring its support for the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and unanimously approved a $1,500,000 construction contract for road improvements in the community of El Porvenir. The contract covers road reconstruction and related work, including installation of Americans with Disabilities Act–compliant curb ramps, sidewalks, curbs and gutters, and improved drainage.
