We’re proud to introduce the newest cohort of BEAM Circular Community Ambassadors! We’ve partnered with Valleyonward to expand the Ambassador program to Merced County. Valley Onward is an incredible local organization dedicated to cultivating leaders in the Central Valley. Part of that work is supporting Promotoras in Merced County. These Promotoras are our newest Merced County Ambassadors!

Who are Promotoras and why are they so important? Promotoras are trusted advocates and leaders, rooted in the communities they serve. They are the bridge that connects families with vital resources through culturally relevant outreach and education. That trust is earned through years of showing up for their community by translating and educating, doing home visits, and running workshops. They work overtime to make sure the communities they serve don’t fall through the cracks.

As Community Ambassadors, they’ll bring the circular bioeconomy home to their own neighborhoods, helping residents see what a growing bioeconomy can mean for good local jobs, and healthier and more sustainable communities.

We’re so excited for the Merced Community Ambassadors to learn, engage, and share about the circular bioeconomy!
