September 2021
Hi Friends!
September is my favorite month of the year in Southern Nevada, with temperatures cooling down and kids back in school. Clark County has some of the best parks around, so let’s all take the chance to get outdoors and take a stroll or kick a ball around with the kids!
As always, please feel free to contact me and my team by phone at (702) 455-3500 or by email at ccdistf@clarkcountynv.gov. You can also follow me @JustinJonesNV on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram to keep up with the latest events in the District.

Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is a condition where the heart suddenly stops beating. When SCA occurs, the time it takes to use an AED (Automated External Defibrillator) on the victim is directly related to their chances of survival. For example, if the person having a SCA is shocked with an AED within 1 minute their chance of survival is 90%, at three minutes 70%, at five minutes 50% and so on. Commissioner Jones joined Commissioner Naft to accept the donation of six AEDs for James Regional Sports Park. One of the devices was dedicated by the Hawley family in the name of their late daughter, Brooke. Learn more at http://adamsheart.org
Commissioner Jones partnered with Assembly members Brittney Miller and Steve Yeager to host an eviction clinic presented by the Legal Aid Center of Southern Nevada. If you or someone you know is facing eviction and in need of assistance, you can receive one-on-one consultation from the Legal Aid Center, just head to their website to make an appointment: LegalAidSNV
Last month Commissioner Jones was honored to team up with RedCrossNevada for a community blood drive at the Las Vegas Ballpark. All attendees received free Aviators game tickets and they got the chance to save a life. If you want to give blood, donate, volunteer, or learn more about their work please head over to Redcross.org
Commissioner Jones joined Commission Chairwoman Kirkpatrick and the SNHD to host a conversation where doctors and other public health experts in our community answered questions, addressed concerns, and dispelled misinformation about COVID-19.
