Assemblymember
Mary Hayashi Launches New Web Resource Page for State Services
The
webpage allows constituents to
review a comprehensive list of resources provided by California
state agencies. “This
webpage should help anyone looking for a particular service in their
community,” Assemblymember Hayashi said. “There are 170 resource links
that offer valuable information such as how to prevent identity theft,
how to apply for a FasTrak toll device, and how you can receive free
cash for college. These wonderful links range from applying for a
driver’s license to registering to vote and everything else in
between. It’s my hope that residents of the 18th District
will benefit from this webpage in order to access a vast array of
services available to them.”
To visit the new webpage, log on to
Assemblymember Hayashi’s official homepage at
www.assembly.ca.gov/hayashi and click on
the State Resources Websites
link. This will lead web browsers to a list of service-based websites.
From there click on any of the service links and be directed to the
appropriate state agency’s website.
