May 21, 2026
The First 5 Riverside County Children & Families Commission has named Helena Lopez, CEO of A Greater Hope (AGH), as its 2024 Champion for Children based on recommendations by the Advisory Committee.
We teamed up with Riverside University Health System - Public Health to write a press release about water safety ahead of a busy holiday weekend. Summer is around the corner and it's crucial families take all the steps they need to in order to keep their children safe in the water.
Hear from Riverside County leaders, including our Commission Chair, Supervisor Chuck Washington, and our Executive Director, Charna Widby, as they talk about First 5's role in water safety for our county.
