Last week in Visalia CA, Zócalo Health brought families together for a Free Haircutting Event—and served 65 children with fresh cuts, vouchers, and lots of love for the upcoming school year. 💙

This was more than a haircut—it was a celebration of community, care, and connection.

Big thank you to our amazing partners who made it possible:
