Our June luncheon was well attended and MC’ed by President pro tempore Stan Ness.  Our speakers highlighted what various OC cities are doing to address the homelessness crisis. Our featured speaker was Mr. Ken Domer, City Manager of the City of Fullerton. In addition, the Interim City Manager of Anaheim, Ms. Linda Andal and Stanton City Manager, Jim Box attended.  We also had some researchers from Chapman University in attendance:

• Dr. Lisa Leitz, Chair of Peace Studies, Chapman University
• Georgiana Bostean, Ph.D. Assistant Professor, Department of Sociology and Environmental Science & Policy Program

who are conducting research in the area of e-Cigarettes/Vaping on youth and adolescents.  Finally, Mr. Kostas Kalaitzidis, Public Information Officer of the OC Superior Courts attended too. Mr. Kostas is Gwen Vieau’s replacement and works with the Court and sitting Grand Jury to help recruit Grand Jurors. It was a pleasure to have all of these folks in attendance and to have their contributions to the discussion on homelessness.
