California Jobs First (CERF) Collaborative Meeting: Summer of Collective Learning- June 22, 2023

This was our first official Collaborative meeting! On June 22, 2023 from 1pm – 3pm, we kicked off our “Summer of Collective Learning” series with a presentation from guest speaker Dr. Manuel Pastor. We made some major announcements regarding changes to the California Jobs First (CERF) program (California Jobs First (CERF) Catalyst Fund Program) and other updates. The Summer of Collective Learning series will give us time to learn and plan together around the California Jobs First (CERF) program. From June to August, each monthly meeting will feature a collective learning session on topics related to the California Jobs First (CERF) program’s values and goals, as well as time dedicated to advancing our region’s efforts. In addition to viewing the recording below, you may also download the VV slides, Catalyst Fund slides, Dr. Pastor’s Slides and meeting minutes.
