NEW: Starting with the graduating class of 2031, California will require ALL high school students to take a personal finance course.
Financial literacy is a life skill, and we’re making sure every California student is well-prepared.
What began as a program that was unavailable to Fresno students has now served nearly 1,000 students and is setting the standard for California’s graduation requirement.

❄️Climate change may reduce the frequency & severity of cold waves.
BUT the impacts of fewer, weaker cold waves could actually get worse if we let our guard down.
We must stay prepared for cold waves by reducing exposure & keeping infrastructure ready.

Behind every emergency response is a person who showed up trained, prepared, and committed.
Earlier this week, CAL FIRE personnel were recognized at the 2026 California EMS Awards, an annual ceremony honoring the individuals and teams who go above and beyond in emergency medical care across California. This award is a reflection of their commitment and of the standard our members hold themselves to in service to California's communities.
👏 Join us in congratulating our honorees!

🚨 We’d all like to think, “It won’t happen to me.”

🌳 We need YOUR help.
The Goldspotted Oak Borer (GSOB) is an invasive pest quietly damaging oak trees across Southern California. It spreads quietly, and by the time trees show signs of damage, it’s often too late.
The GSOB Blitz is a community effort where people like you help spot and report signs of the beetle while you’re out in nature. Your observations can help experts track the spread and protect healthy forests. If you hike, camp, or spend time outdoors in Southern California, you can be a part of the solution and help save California’s oaks.
