Join Our Sector Tables
Join one of our Sector Tables and share your concerns, ideas, and industry strategies with Redwood Region RISE's platform-a regional community coalition of 150 members engaging a community of nearly a thousand residents, the broader public, and the State of California. As a member of our Sector Table you will collaborate with other organizations and experts to identify projects and initiatives that can be scaled to a regional level and compete for (state) funding.
Through this opportunity, you can strengthen relationships with local and regional partners, gain access to trainings (e.g., centering equity in economic development) and many more resources, and increase our Region's competitiveness to receive future funding. Your input will help create a sustainable economic vision for our Region.
Who Makes Up Our Sector Tables?
Redwood Region RISE's four Sector Tables are:
• Arts, Culture, and Tourism
• Health and Caregiving
• Renewable and Resilient Energy (Wind, Solar, Microgrids)
