Jonah’s Place Vision Meeting

Adrian Rodriguez — Thu, 10 Sep 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Come hear and see the vision of Centers for Living’s Sobering Center, Jonah’s Place, which is more than a shelter. It is more than a place for someone to sober up. It is a solution to one of Fresno County’s most significant public health and public safety challenges. Jonah’s Place is planned as a 100-bed, 24-hour stabilization facility that will provide medically monitored care for non-violent adults experiencing acute intoxication. Licensed nurses, behavioral health professionals, peer support specialists, and case managers will work together to stabilize each individual, prepare them, and offer hope for their next step toward recovery.
We look forward to seeing you for coffee and pastries any Tuesday or Thursday from 7:15 to 8:30. Across from the Fresno Fairgrounds at 4417 E. Inyo St. RSVP to Matt Ribera at 559-813-0672 or mattribera@centersforliving.org

CarePortal Fall Fundraiser

Adrian Rodriguez — Thu, 17 Sep 2026 07:00:00 +0000

Partner with Fresno’s Social Workers on September 17 at 6:00 AM at The Garage Church
We are excited to announce that we are partnering with social workers who can utilize CarePortal to better support families, and this is your invitation to be a part of it. Fresno’s churches and community have the chance to come around families in their time of need, bridging the gap between the agencies who work directly with children and the community who cares.
Join us for this free breakfast as we hear from social workers about the need and the opportunity in Fresno County.
CarePortal works to keep families together – reversing the foster care crisis by providing tangible support and meaningful connection. We do this by supporting families experiencing poverty before crisis hits, stepping in when a CPS case is preventable through community support, helping kinship placements with caring relatives, and supporting youth aging out of foster care. By providing beds, furniture, clothing, food, transportation help, baby supplies, and more to families in need, we can keep more families together.

Abundant Life Ranch Banquet Fundraiser & Auction

Adrian Rodriguez — Sat, 19 Sep 2026 07:00:00 +0000

We would love to invite you to Abundant Life Ranch on Saturday, September 19, for our 2026 Banquet Fundraiser.
This year’s theme is When Faith Says “Yes.”
This is more than a dinner. It is a chance to gather with friends of the Ranch, hear meaningful stories from people whose lives have been touched here, and see more clearly what your support makes possible.
Throughout the evening, we will share a meal, watch a horse demonstration that offers a glimpse into what happens during sessions at the Ranch, and celebrate the life change God continues to bring through relationships, mentoring, horses, and community.
The Live Auction is also returning this year, giving us another meaningful way to come together in support of the work ahead.
We hope you will make plans to join us, and invite someone who would be encouraged by the stories and mission of Abundant Life Ranch.
