The Resource Connection provides a wide array of programs and services to the residents of Amador and Calaveras counties in the heart of California’s Gold Country. Many of the towns in the area started as mining camps.
But the unique and interesting history of the area reveals little about the actual lives of the 84,000 residents who today call the communities of Amador or Calaveras counties home. Residents of rural communities face challenges that are similar to, but also different from, those of their urban counterparts; they worry about safety, employment, housing, health, education, and the well-being of their families and communities.
The Resource Connection, which is rooted in many of these communities, is committed to working collaboratively to develop programs and services that address local and regional challenges in ways unique to the culture and traditions of the area.
