Engage MoVal

About Engage MoVal

Engage MoVal is a community outreach effort to foster greater communication and participation with the residents living in the City’s disadvantaged communities.

Disadvantaged communities are those that have characteristics, defined by CalEnviroScreen 3.0, that make them disproportionately burdened by, and vulnerable to, health risks. The City of Moreno Valley has partnered with the Family Service Association, the Moreno Valley Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, the Riverside University Health System – Public Health, and the State of California in the Engage MoVal effort. Each partner shares the common goal of improving the lives of residents, businesses, and stakeholders within disadvantaged communities.

The work upon which this publication is based was funded in whole or in part through a Transformative Climate Communities grant awarded by the California Strategic Growth Council and administered by the California Department of Conservation. The Engage MoVal toolbox resulted in documented strategies and best practices that the City will use to conduct meaningful and effective engagement with residents in the disadvantaged areas of the City.
