Dear w84me,
There is a fairly new dive club that is quite active. A lot of the members are new divers. Check them out: www.calidivers.org.
And like Scott suggested, consider diving Folsom Lake. Yeah, it's boooooring, but it's much closer than Monterey and you can work on being comfortable in water and with your gear, buoyancy, weighting, and navigation.
