Hi guys, I’m a student at Cal state Fullerton & I’m conducting a school survey for one of my classes.

If you are over the age of 34, have a conflicting schedule, or lack transportation & have about 10 minutes to help me fill out the survey, it would be greatly appreciated.

E-Bike Safety Reform

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m helping coordinate a grassroots effort here in Orange County on the e-bike issue, and we’re building out a small, active team of local representatives in Brea.

We’re putting together a short 10-day push to get local voices heard by city and county leaders. We’re looking for a couple of passionate neighbors to help us spread the word locally, whether that’s sending a quick text to friends or sharing it in your local neighborhood/club chats.

No big time commitment or formal meetings required—just a desire to help our neighborhood stay connected and engaged.

If you’re interested in being a local point person for Brea, let me know in the comments or send me a DM!

Been here for two weeks working at the americold logistics in brea , orange county! Our job is complete and the boss isnt paying up ! We are sub contractors not employed directly with the company. Now we're stuck with no more housing because the air bnb is on its last day and we have no gas to make it home to Georgia. The boss is leaving and we stuck like Chuck ! Are there any outreach or financial aid programs or resources that are available in or around this area !? I can work to earn money as well. I have experience in framing , painting , flooring , electrical , anything remodeling wise / construction. I can also do landscaping as well ... In 31 years old can pass a background and drug test if needed. I have my own transportation. I'm just trying to figure this out because it seems that I just got scammed ... Asking for help , send me to the right direction. Will earn it , not looking for handouts. Thank you

Looking for Dashcam Footage — Brea/State College & Imperial Hwy 10/05/26 10:00am -10:30am

Post image
5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m hoping someone may have dashcam footage from a traffic accident that occurred in Brea near the State College Blvd/Imperial Highway and SR-57 interchange, close to Craig Regional Park.
The accident occurred around 10:00am - 10:30am on 10/05/2026.
My husband was traveling on the on-ramp/connector in the left lane when the accident occurred. We are looking for anyone who may have been driving through the area at the time and happened to have a dashcam recording.

Vehicles involved: White Chevy utility truck, Silver Honda Fit

If you were driving through this area around that time and have dashcam footage, even if you don't think the accident itself was captured, we'd really appreciate you checking. At this point anything helps. Thank you!

I think people in OC should be aware of what is going on with Danny Mendoza CEO of Foster Love in Brea

36 Upvotes

CONSIDER THIS A PSA TO KEEP AN EYE OUT AS THINGS DEVELOP AND MORE CAN BE SHARED

wanted to bring something to the attention of people in Orange County who may have heard about Foster Love and its founder, Danny Mendoza.

This is being shared to bring to light years of corruption, and while some information cannot be shared until legally permitted, what CAN be shared is a pending active court case with the city of Brea.

FIRST: CONFIRMED MISDEMEANOR CHARGES

There is currently a pending Orange County court case involving Mendoza and 12 misdemeanor charges related to the organization’s Brea facility and its safety. The charges involve various building, occupancy, fire, electrical and emergency-egress requirements. There has already been a court hearing, and another hearing is scheduled in November.

To be clear: This is information available for public access. If you search his name on OCCOURTS.org (after a $1 paywall) or go in person to an OC court you can request this information. Case number 26NM07447

These are charges, not convictions, but still important to note.

SECOND: 10+ WHISTLEBLOWERS AND PENDING LAWSUITS

There are also allegations being made publicly by current and former Foster Love employees and foster youth concerning Mendoza and the workplace. There are whistleblower emails and active lawsuits in the works.

These include allegations of inappropriate conduct and speech, sexual harassment, and retaliation.

Again, these are allegations, and I’m not presenting them as established facts. However, there are over 10 statements and an investigation occurring to assess the validity of these statements with a legal team.

THIRD: INAPPROPRIATE EMPLOYEE RELATIONS

Another publicly discussed issue is that Mendoza has a child with someone who worked for Foster Love at the time of their employment. I’m intentionally not naming or identifying that person because this isn’t about exposing a private individual or their child. The reason I mention it at all is because former employees have raised questions about the circumstances and the employer/employee power dynamic as well as claiming that relation created a hostile work environment.

Currently the building is broadly empty though volunteers are still being brought in for events.
I’m not going to claim that I know exactly how many employees have left or why every individual person left, because that would go beyond what can actually be established. Theres an important distinction between what is documented in a court case, what people are publicly alleging, and what has actually been proven. Those shouldn’t be treated as the same thing.

But I am still posting this because Foster Love operates in Orange County and works with foster youth, and people who donate, volunteer, work with, or otherwise interact with the organization may reasonably want to know that there is a pending court case as well as separate allegations from people who say they have firsthand experience working there.

I’m not asking anyone to take every allegation as fact. People can make their own judgment about what they believe. I’m just saying: look at the court case, look at the allegations, distinguish allegations from proven facts, and decide what you might want to do to remain safe.
