San Joaquin A+

A new report by researchers at the University of the Pacific paints a troubling picture of economic trends in Stockton: wages are plummeting, job growth is clustered in low-paying jobs, and Stockton’s economy is becoming less and less competitive compared to its neighbors. To remedy this, we must develop new learning and training pipelines in partnership with local schools, and expand apprenticeship programs. Please join us on Tuesday, December 15th at 11:30am for the first ...in a series of panels with experts and local industry leaders. We'll discuss the report findings and determine what we can do to build ladders to good jobs for San Joaquin County residents.
