CERF SOUTHERN BORDER COALITION
SBCS along with seven other organizations in the counties of San Diego and Imperial Valley are working together as part of the CERF Southern Border Coalition. These eight nonprofit organizations have formed this Coalition to facilitate the formation of a regional economic development plan that empowers, uplifts, and facilitates community ownership in decision-making for the region and, especially, disinvested communities by fostering equity and creating sustainable opportunities for growth. Through this effort, the Coalition aims to elevate the voice of 15 sectors in the creation of this regional economic development plan that will guide future investments in our communities.
The 15 sectors include:
- Labor organizations
- Employers, businesses, and business associations
- Grassroot and community-based organizations, community organizers, and community members
- Government agencies
- Economic development agencies
- Philanthropic organizations
- Education and training providers
- Workforce entities
- Environmental justice organizations
- Worker centers
- Disinvested communities
- Native American Tribes
- Youth
- LGBTQIA
- Farmworkers
The Southern Border Coalition is working together to launch a series of informational sessions tailored to each of the 15 sectors to inform members of these sectors about the CERF project, and to extend an invitation for you to join.
