Although the approaching holidays are foremost on our minds it is important to remember that we live in an area that often encounters conditions where there is a high risk of wildfire. SCE reminds us that you may encounter a temporary cut-off of power in your area. This can help prevent electrical systems from becoming an ignition source. Situational power cuts are temporary and are intended to ensure the safety of you and your community.
In order to reduce wildfire threats and improve safety, our partners at Southern California Edison (SCE) are working to bolster wildfire prevention, put in place new and enhanced safety measures, and make their electric system more resilient.

Meet BRC Team Member - Haley Webster
As the needs of the community grow, so does the BRC team! Meet Haley Webster, Social Media Specialist. Haley first came to BRC in an administrative role but with her many skills, she soon joined the marketing department. “I hope to utilize social media platforms to spread the word about who BRC is and what we do. This will help educate and provide support for the community.”, shared Haley.
Haley knows firsthand how communities can come together during and after disasters. “I was impacted by the Blue Cut fire that occurred in 2016 and I loved how the community came together to keep everyone, and their pets, safe. It was so special to see groups from all around come together to aid a community of people they didn’t even know, and I thought it would be special to be a part of that.”
Starting at California Baptist University (CBU), Haley initially enrolled as a nursing major. Later she found her passion and now holds a degree in Healthcare Administration from California Baptist University.

Haley strongly aligns herself with BRC’s commitment to service. “I feel service to society is most important to me because I have always been passionate about helping others and making sure others are respected and loved.”
And with BRC’s broadest goals to create equitable and healthy communities in all aspects including physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental health, Haley is in the perfect setting.
“BRC is important because we can help work with the community to tackle bigger issues at large and listen, respect, and take action to provide for those around us.”
Welcome, Haley!
We look forward to experiencing the impact of your skills and talents in helping BRC continue to grow!
