  Mr. DeSAULNIER. Madam Speaker, I rise today to recognize 
contributions of Eva Garcia to the Contra Costa community and 
congratulate her on her retirement.
  Eva Garcia was born in Argentina and immigrated to the United States 
in 1971. Through her many positions throughout her career, it has been 
clear that Eva has worked hard and works in service of others. In 1998, 
Eva joined the staff at Contra Costa County Service Integration 
Program, which is now SparkPoint Contra Costa. In 2000, Eva advanced to 
the top leadership position at SparkPoint's Career Center thanks to her 
hard work and dedication.
  In this role, Eva has assisted so many in the area with job training 
and mentoring. Eva has also been appointed to the Bay Point Municipal 
Advisory, serving on the advisory board to Supervisor Federal Glover, 
and is a member of the Mt. Diablo Unified School District Bay Point Ad/
Hoc Committee, Vice President of the Bay Point Historical Society, and 
Secretary of the Bay Point Association. Eva's leadership is commendable 
and Contra Costa has benefited greatly thanks to her work.
  In her personal life, Eva is a mother to her twin children and has 
been a proud resident of Bay Point for the past 30 years. Her love for 
her family and her community is clear to all who know her.
  We thank Eva for her 24 years of service and for her passion for Bay 
Point and its residents. Please join me in honoring Eva and 
congratulating her on her retirement.
