Why I am voting for Joan Hartmann for reelection as 3rd District
County Supervisor:
Joan helped fund the co-response team, which trains county sheriff’s
deputies as they respond to mental health calls, to de-escalate and result in
better outcomes. She also helped to secure $6 million in funding for the Public
Defender’s diversion programs which provide treatment to dual diagnosis
patients to get them treatment instead of putting them in jail and then back
out on the street, homeless and mentally ill.
Joan has worked to protect our community from wildfires by
helping to secure $2.2 million in funding for the Fire Department for fuel
reduction and a Community Wildfire Protection Plan. She serves on the Fire Safe
Council, supporting the firefighters who put their lives on the line.
