HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
         WHEREAS, The Del Valle Community Coalition has demonstrated a
  steadfast commitment to supporting area residents during the
  COVID-19 pandemic and the accompanying economic crisis, as well as
  in the aftermath of Winter Storm Uri; and
         WHEREAS, The unprecedented circumstances of the past year
  have placed immense burdens on our communities, including strains
  on health care resources, loss of jobs, business closures, and
  damage to homes, and the members of the Del Valle Community
  Coalition have set an inspiring example of civic leadership by
  continuing to serve others and working toward the greater good; in
  so doing, they have been a source of guidance and relief to many
  individuals; and
         WHEREAS, A nonprofit charitable organization, the Del Valle
  Community Coalition works to increase health care coverage,
  advocate for environmental regulation, and find new strategies to
  increase food access in underprivileged and underserved
  communities; on August 29, 2020, the group partnered with the
  Austin Latino Coalition to host a drive for personal protective
  equipment to limit the spread of COVID-19; after Winter Storm Uri,
  the coalition deployed food trucks to 13 locations to serve nearly
  8,000 meals to residents in need and held eight events to distribute
  more than 2,000 boxes of food and 4,000 cases of water; and
         WHEREAS, Since then, the Del Valle Community Coalition has
  organized many other important initiatives, including the
  distribution of food, water, household supplies, and personal
  protective equipment, as well as numerous COVID-19 vaccine
  distribution events in east and southeast Travis County; and
         WHEREAS, The tireless dedication of the Del Valle Community
  Coalition has made a positive difference in the lives of countless
  Texans during a time of crisis, and the organization is truly
  deserving of special recognition for its efforts; now, therefore,
  be it
         RESOLVED, That the 87th Legislature of the State of Texas
  hereby honor the Del Valle Community Coalition for its outstanding
  service to the community and extend to its members sincere best
  wishes for continued success in their important work; and, be it
  further
         RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
  prepared for the group as an expression of high regard by the Texas
  House of Representatives and Senate.
