Public Outreach

Outreach Events

We attend events throughout Ventura County each year to talk to the public about air quality, what individuals can do to improve it and grants we provide to help. We also distribute informative materials and goodies. If you have an event that you would like us to participate in, email Public Information Officer Karin Grennan at karin@vcapcd.org or call her at 805-303-4002.
