Santa Cruz Wharf

Monterey County hosts California's first police training focused on missing and murdered indigenous people, Santa Cruz wharf reconstruction, flying cars headed for Hollister airport, indigenous interpretation services in Salinas, and butterflies landing at the Pacific Grove Monarch Sanctuary.

Monterey County begins a program focused on improving how police, public health, and legal professionals address cases of Missing and Murdered Indigenous People (MMIP). Plus, repairs to the end of the Santa Cruz Wharf are slated to begin in the next two weeks.

A change in federal funding threatens local Head Start programs, which provide free preschool for low-income families. Plus, the City of Santa Cruz is seeking public input on the Wharf Master Plan.
