Redwood Region RISE (California Jobs First)

Redwood Region RISE (Resilient Inclusive Sustainable Economy) is a coalition of 150+ members engaging over a thousand residents across Tribal Lands, Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, and Mendocino Counties. Together, we've created and are now implementing our 10-year Regional Roadmap: a community- and data-driven plan to bring sustainable, quality jobs to our region while advancing environmental stewardship and social equity through the California Jobs First initiative.

We envision the Redwood Region a healing place where everyone belongs, with stable jobs, accessible healthcare, and a flourishing natural environment. Together, we work towards a future where anyone can thrive.
