Gov. Gavin Newsom spoke in Marin County Friday morning about a new milestone in reducing homelessness in California and expanding access to behavioral health services. The Ritter Center in San Rafael is celebrating a new $14 million health and wellness center as a result of voter-enacted Proposition 1. The center will increase capacity by 25% and put case management, housing support, food assistance and other services under one roof. Newsom said the public needs to know that the investment voters made by voting yes on the bond measure is paying off. The full report is available in the video above.
