ALBA offers farmworkers an opportunity to learn the skills needed to start their own growing operations. This includes growing organic produce, as well. We got to see the produce the participants had grown and the equipment provided to participants. I&#8217;m very glad I was able to participate in the tour and learn about the program. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PHILOSOPHY OF LIFE<\/strong>: I once read that happiness is not a destination, it\u2019s a way of life. It is up to us to do something that will make us happy each day. We can listen to our favorite song, watch a funny movie, talk to a friend or do something kind for someone else. Do something that will put a smile on your face and always remember, \u201cLife is short. Smile while you still have teeth.\u201d \u2013 Mallory Hopkins<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE TO SAY?<\/strong> I\u2019ve had the opportunity to meet many dedicated supervisors, dependable environmental scientists and hardworking office staff while working for CDFA. I\u2019ve learned that each person plays a vital role in making CDFA successful. I\u2019m happy to be a part of ISD and I look forward to learn more about CDFA.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NAME: Karina Macias Arroyo YEARS AT CDFA: 2 PROGRAM: Inspection Services Division (ISD) Administration Unit TITLE: Staff Services Analyst USUAL DAILY ACTIVITIES: Review and submit inter-agency governmental forms, log and file documents, provide weekly updates, work on HR packets when &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/2020\/10\/29\/isd-staff-spotlight-karina-macias-arroyo\/\"><span class=\"text-nowrap\">Continue reading <i class=\"fa fa-fw fa-caret-right\"><\/i><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12,114,59],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-301","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cdfa-inspection-services-division","category-inspection-services-division-administration-unit","category-isd-staff-spotlight"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=301"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":319,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/301\/revisions\/319"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=301"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=301"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.cdfa.ca.gov\/CDFAInspectionServicesBlog\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=301"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
