“Historically, at least, Stockton has had an incredible racial and economic diversity in the city, and yet there has not necessarily been opportunities to express that diversity economically. A lot of the jobs here have been relatively low wage, and so workers here that live in Stockton have commuted out in search of better paying jobs.” – Ann Rogan, Founder and CEO of Edge Collaborative     This is why our #PriorityCommunities grantee-partners in #Stockton are working to create high-quality, accessible economic opportunities in their communities, ensuring all residents can thrive.     Check out the video below to hear from Kara Backman of San Joaquin A+; Barbara Barrigan-Parrilla of Restore the Delta; Dominique Crosby of DRC Trucking Logistics LLC; Dillon Delvo of Little Manila Rising; Nikolas Howard of Reinvent Stockton Foundation; Dr. Nancy Huante-Tzintzun of NOPAL; Kayla Martin of Ready To Work; Ann Rogan of Edge Collaborative; Moses Zapien of San Joaquin Community Foundation; and Juan, Ready To Work participant.
