SAN RAFAEL, CA — The city of San Rafael has named a nonprofit coordinator as its Citizen of the Year. Samantha Ramirez received more than nine nominations for the award for her work with the Marin County Youth Commission, city officials said in a statement. "In the opinion of her nominators, she has gone above and beyond her official role to nurture and mentor kids in our community, particularly Latino kids who have had very few Latinos in leadership roles to whom they could look up to and relate," city officials said in a statement. "She has served as a bridge builder, which is a tremendous gift, and which she does without compensation, and she has proven to be an exemplary citizen of San Rafael."
