Housing Stanislaus
Housing is one of the most fundamental human needs, yet housing availability is at a crisis point throughout California. Too many individuals and families are forced to spend a disproportionate share of their incomes on housing, live farther from work and other daily needs than they would like, or live in overcrowded conditions.
Knowing that the challenges are multi-faceted and that solutions require a collective approach, Stanislaus County engaged Valley Vision to coordinate its Housing Stanislaus initiative. Housing Stanislaus is a collective effort to build a shared vision for housing in Stanislaus County.

Listos California Emergency Preparedness Campaign
Overview
In 2023, Governor Gavin Newsom and the State Legislature appropriated more than $50 million to fund the Listos California Program. This program – based at the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES) – focuses on delivering emergency preparedness, response, and recovery information and tools to diverse and vulnerable populations in high-hazard areas throughout California.
Listos California’s mission is to ensure every Californian, regardless of age, ability, income or language, receives culturally competent education to prepare for natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, and wildfires. Since its inception in 2019, Listos Califonia has engaged millions of Californians with low incomes, disabilities, language barriers, older adults, and other highly vulnerable populations with culturally and linguistically appropriate support through a grass-roots, people-centered approach. The program is implemented through a rich network of community-based organizations, Tribal governments, and Community Emergency Response Teams (CERTs), which are able to reach targeted audiences through focused and interactive strategies. By delivering actionable information and tools with cultural relevance and tact, the campaign ensures California communities are prepared to respond and recover in the event of a natural disaster.
Valley Vision serves as the backbone organization for Listos California, helping support and coordinate the work of creative, strategic, and programmatic partners in the development and dissemination of culturally appropriate, in-language educational tools and assets. We aim to amplify the success of all campaign partners, helping them empower vulnerable individuals and build community resilience to the disasters that may confront our state.

Community Health Improvement Plan: San Joaquin County
Recognizing the need for targeted, coordinated priorities and goals to drive change, more than 100 stakeholders contributed to the development of the Community Health Improvement Plan for San Joaquin County. The CHIP was created to guide collaborative, long-term efforts to address community health needs throughout the county. Knowing that even a well detailed plan will not fully mobilize the actions desired, the Healthier Community Collaborative engaged Valley Vision to help advance priorities, goals, and strategies outlined in the Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP).
Valley Vision aligned efforts by lifting up and prioritizing common priorities, creating a centralized communication hub to collect and distribute updates and opportunities, facilitating regular stakeholder meetings, defining and monitoring success metrics, researching and sharing funding opportunities, and coordinating collaborative funding proposals.
