One stop for your county service needs
Presented by Contra Costa Health Services in collaboration with the City of Richmond
Join us for Contra Costa County’s 6th Annual Summer Block Party where residents can make one stop for their county service needs from 4 to 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 27, at 440 Civic Center Plaza, 27th and Nevin Streets in Richmond.
Public parking is available on Nevin Street at 27th Street. In collaboration with the City of Richmond, the County is hosting this family-friendly event where community members can conveniently connect with County and City staff and get support handling their important tasks.
“We are excited to bring this community event back to Richmond to serve our West County residents where they live,” said District I Supervisor John Gioia. “Residents will have a unique opportunity to access multiple services in one location, making it easier to take care of their county needs as well as enjoy an afternoon at this family-friendly community event.”
Contra Costa residents can connect with services outside of regular business hours. These include registering to vote, getting copies of vital records, applying for Veterans Benefits, CalFresh, Medi-Cal, or other programs. The Contra Costa County Library will present a live story time and have its Rolling Reader on site. The City of Richmond Fire Department will also roll in its fire truck. Plus, there will be Zumba by Rosa and several other community organizations sharing information and services.
Community members can enjoy a festive gathering, plus receive on-the-spot services and information from departments and programs such as Contra Costa Health, CONFIRE, Community Warning System, Public Works, Probation, District Attorney’s Office, and many more.
Contra Costa County has hosted this increasingly popular event since 2017. This is the sixth Block Party, which rotates to a different County location each year to provide opportunities for County staff to engage with community members across the County and make services more accessible to all.
