BARC Blog…the Beginning.

A performance by the BARC Singers is a wonderful beginning to any event.

The world of social media – Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, My Space, You Tube, blogging – once only the domain of cyber-geeks and internet driven businesses, has found its way to the masses and is growing at a break neck pace. Confusing and daunting at first, the road to a positive presence in the realm of social media has ended up being enlightening and exciting.

It turns out the best way to reach people is to be among the people. As BARC has always been about the people, we are embracing this new form of media as we continue to educate, motivate and inspire people to learn about the people, programs and industries of BARC.

This blog is the next step in an endeavor we hope provides as much inspiration as it will information.

Our goal is to help you get to know BARC a little better. From the wonderful Clients for whom we have the privilege to provide the stepping stones to a more independent life to the industries that can save your business time and money.

We hope to present a myriad of topics to stir your interest. Many will come from you some will come from us. In fact some might even make you angry, but all will be informative and we want your opinions whatever they may be.

We’ll keep you informed regarding legislative issues that impact our community and how you can help BARC’s voice be heard at the LOCAL, STATE and FEDERAL levels. BARC has always depended on the support of the Greater Bakersfield community, and the citizens of our city and county have always surrounded us with the comfort of their support and guidance. There are many of our service provider counterparts across the state that do not get local support, and BARC never takes your support for granted but appreciates our community very much.

Most of all, we hope that from each blog entry you will take with you a greater understanding of how and why we labor to Give People Purpose, and the importance of their contribution in our community. And we look forward to reading your responses and helping us to grow our BARC Blog audience.

Welcome to BARC’s Blog….We are happy to have you!
