Homeless and low income individuals and families are invited to attend the “Project Connect” outreach event on March 5. The event will run from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at El Garces Train Depot, 950 Front St., in Needles. County officials say the purpose of the project is to “provide a centralized location where non-profit medical and social service providers collaborate to provide services to low-income and homeless individuals and families,” according to a release. The event will provide homeless and low-income individuals with free dental care, family support, housing support services, hygiene products, medical care, mental health services, substance abuse treatment, SSI information, legal advice, employment services and more. For additional information, contact Deanna Luttrell at 909-386-8225 or 7-1-1 for TTY users.
