Local Assistance Center moves location

The County of Monterey is continuing it’s local assistance center support for residents impacted by winter storms.

The County of Monterey has closed its Local Assistance Center (LAC) at the Spreckels Veterans Memorial Building and is opening a second center at a new location. The new spot is at the Monterey County Government Center – Schilling Place, 1441 Schilling Place in Salinas. It will open Saturday, January 28th.  

The first center was open January 21st to 26th. This second center will be open from Saturday, January 28th to Sunday, February 5th, 9:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. daily.

The center at its new location will have all the resources that are currently available, a wide array of support services from local, state and federal agencies as well as non-profits and charitable organizations. A list of participating agencies is attached.

The center will be located in the former Economic Development Department space of the Schilling Place complex. There is ample parking both in the Schilling Place lot and across the street. 

Monterey Salinas Transit will continue to provide free bus service to the center from Pajaro and San Ardo.  Any resident who has been impact by our winter storms is encouraged to stop by the LAC and take advantage of the services and assistance that is available to you.
