IN THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
OF
CONTRA COSTA COUNTY, STATE OF CALIFORNIA
In the Matter of Declaring
April 21, 1990 as DON FIBUSH DAY )RESOLUTION NO. 90/226
in Contra Costa County
Don Fibush is this year' s recipient of the Northern California
Psychiatric Society' s Special Award for his tireless efforts in
social issues.
Realizing that one of our most serious social problems is the
unmet needs of our children, he was instrumental in the founding
of the Contra Costa County Adoption Agency and the California
Children' s Lobby. As his commitment to the advocacy of
children' s programs grew, Don retired from his own business
pursuits and devoted himself entirely to his dedication to social
needs and became a spokesperson for volunteerism and mental
health related activities. The Contra Costa County group of
Friends Outside, established to provide friendship and support to
prison inmates and their families, was one of the results of his
interest.
As a humanitarian, an activist, a community volunteer, and an
advocate for the helpless and needy, Don Fibush' s activities are
beyond classification. He has been the catalyst in many of our
county' s responses to social and mental health needs. For his
selfless dedication and compassion, Contra Costa County wishes to
express its sincere gratitude and recognize him for his valuable
contributions.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Supervisors
declares April 21, 1990, as DON FIBUSH DAY in Contra Costa
County.
PASSED AND ADOPTED ON April 17, 1990, by a unanimous vote of the
Board members present.
