The giving is on! San Angelo Gives 2025 kicks off
Cuellar shared that the shelter also has a non-resident program. Families who need help are able to receive all the services that the shelter offers without having to stay there. Services include:
Case management
Assistance with documents
Help with job hunting
Housing
Children's educational department
'Family violence is a big topic that likes to be talked about, but it is everywhere,' Cuellar said. 'It doesn't matter if it's a professional family, it doesn't matter if it's a poor family. A lot of people have misconceptions that it is people who don't, who are in need of a lot of things, such as money, but it can affect any and everybody, that's why it is definitely a community issue.'

Orphaned bear cubs rescued from Calaveras County neighborhood
A litter of bear cubs seen wandering a Calaveras County neighborhood alone have been taken in by wildlife rescuers in Southern California. The San Diego Humane Society says the three cubs were spotted over the course of several days. With no mother in sight, the cubs were rescued by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife and then taken to the San Diego Humane Society's Ramona Wildlife Center. Officials say the cubs, two males and a female, were about six to seven months old. Rescuers euthanized one of the cubs after finding it had bone defects and a BB pellet embedded in one of her paws. The other two cubs are now settling into their rescue habitat with the goal of minimally invasive care to avoid the animals from bonding with humans.

Ventura City Hall: California's Extravagant Municipal Building
The San Buenaventura City Hall building, formerly the Ventura County Courthouse, looks down California Street to the Pacific Ocean from its hillside location in Ventura, California. Built between 1912 and 1913, the grand building was designed by architect Albert C. Martin (1879–1960), known for designing Hollywood's Grauman's (now Mann's) Chinese Theater. The building boasts a white-glazed terra cotta exterior with plenty of Italian marble within. Twenty years after its completion, the building was expanded during a five-year project (from 1927 to 1932) with the construction of a two-story, 200 -by- 135 -foot annex. The addition was supervised by architect Harold Burkett and built by the Union Engineering Co. of Los Angeles.
