🌟 Community Advocate of the Year: Reins of Hope 🌟
We are proud to honor Reins of Hope as our Community Advocate of the Year for their powerful work using equine therapy to support ...healing and resilience in our community.
Through their unique programs, Reins of Hope helps individuals—especially youth—process trauma, develop emotional balance, and build communication and problem-solving skills.

Their compassionate approach is helping young survivors rediscover strength, confidence, and hope. 💛

As a board member of the California Welfare Fraud Investigators Association, Supervising District Attorney Investigator Heather Tallent traveled to Washington DC to discuss national fraud trends with... Congressional staffers.
The Ventura County District Attorney’s Office announced today that Michael Gordon Butler (DOB 09/04/84), of Simi Valley, was sentenced on May 20, 2025, to four years in state prison for the death ...of Coldren James Lee Udell Kiblinger. Butler previously pled guilty on April 24, 2025, to one felony count of gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated.
“This was a preventable tragedy. Coldren Kiblinger’s life was tragically cut down by Butler’s grossly negligent decisions on December 25, 2022,” Deputy District Attorney Jillian Ewan said. “While no amount of time will bring Coldren back, I hope the guilty plea will give some sense of justice and closure for the hardship Coldren’s family and friends have endured.”
As we head into the holiday weekend, this is a solemn reminder: Never drink and drive.
Your choices behind the wheel can change lives forever.
