The City of Stockton, California, has experienced a sea change around the new confluence of community leadership, innovation, and political will to address what many thought were intractable issues.
Please join us for a full-day funders convening and Reinvention Tour in Stockton, where you will immerse yourself in the community at the street level and learn about transformative initiatives including the Stockton Scholars college promise scholarship initiative, the much-publicized Universal Basic Income pilot program, the South Stockton Promise Zone collective impact collaborative, the recently approved Advance Peace initiative to address community violence and trauma, and other community initiatives and organizations addressing the cradle-to-career continuum. You will encounter dynamic partnerships between community organizations, civic institutions, and public officials that are leveraging community impact strategies to rectify decades of underinvestment and neglect. This is a pivotal moment for Stockton, and we invite you to be a partner.
