Marin IJ: ‘Reckless’ US Stiffs Marin Schools on $14.5M in Mental Health Grants

“MCOE is actively working to seek clarification on what that means and how the grants might be reinstituted,” he said. “The office will appeal this decision and will pursue legal action as necessary.” Lisa Miller, an assistant superintendent at the county office, said staffing and students at five Marin school districts — Miller Creek, Sausalito Marin City, Shoreline Unified, San Rafael and Novato — will be directly affected. “Hundreds of kids in Marin County are going to miss receiving really important services if this funding stream ends,” Carroll said. “There should be plenty of public outrage about this.”

Open Kimono: As the Mill Valley Music Fest Heads Toward the Four-Year Mark, It’s a Great Reminder of Why We Created It – It’s Not Just a Big Party, It Matters to Us Deeply, and It Supports ALL of Our Amazing Community, and Beyond!

More than anything, The Mill Valley Music Festival is about continuing to be better neighbors to those within and around our community. Whether it’s our years-long support for the We Are One Marin Campaign highlighting BIPOC-owned businesses or our longstanding coverage of inequity in our town, from historic to much more recent and shining a light on discrimination among us, we’re committed to making our town more equitable. That’s not a heavy ask – it’s just connecting the dots toward opportunity.

We’ll continue to strive for ways to use the power of this lil’ music festival to bring both sonic joy and more opportunity to our friends and neighbors
