“For the first time in Assembly District 76, we are uniting community organizations, local leaders, and public agencies in one place to provide resources and support for North County families,” said Patel. “The Escondido YMCA exemplifies the kind of trusted community partner that makes this possible, which is why I am honored to have secured $1,230,000 to modernize their soccer field, gymnasium, and playground. This investment ensures more families have access to safe, high-quality spaces to connect, play, and thrive.”
