This week The CONVERSATION is with Sonora Area Foundation Executive Director Darrell Slocum. He joins Ryan to discuss a big event that’s right around the corner, the COMMUNITY ROOTS RESOURCE FAIR. /// On Wednesday, August 14th from 3-6pm at the fairgrounds, over 40 local agencies and businesses are coming together to support residents through these uncertain economic times. There you can learn about all the resources we have in this community, including food assistance, child care, housing, transportation and even help with these huge utility bills many of us are facing. /// Ryan also takes the opportunity to learn more about the Sonora Area Foundation’s efforts in the community, including many of the programs they support with the 280 funds they administer. You can help, too, by volunteering for the Life Hope Clinic later this fall. /// For more information on the Community Roots Resource Fair, visit CommunityRootsResources.org ///
