I write on behalf of my parents and the roughly 65 residents of an independent senior living community located in St. Helena.
These elderly citizens are living in one building, in separate apartments, and as of last week, all received their second COVID vaccinations.
Despite this seemingly great news, Governor Newsom continues to ignore pleas to allow them out of their apartments. They continue to be locked out of their dining room and confined to their apartments for all meals. This is one building where residents share a common ventilation system, breathing the same air every day. Theirs is not a unique situation in St. Helena. Countless senior living communities all over the state are in the same situation.

The Los Angeles County Probation Department will suspend visitations at juvenile halls and residential treatment facilities for the next three weeks starting this weekend.
The L.A. County Probation Department’s mission to “Rebuild Lives and Provide for Healthier and Safer Communities” also includes taking necessary precautions to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
This is in accordance with California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s Regional Stay at Home Order.
Suspended juvenile halls and residential treatment facility visits include after-court, special, and weekend visits by family members, community-based organizations and in-person religious services.
Parents and guardians have been notified of the temporary suspension of visiting via phone calls and letters stating alternative forms of contact with their child. Required legal visits will be held as scheduled, and all court-ordered visits will be honored.
