Climate, Justice, and Jobs Summit (March 2021)
Join the effort to build an inclusive pipeline to grow green jobs in the Sacramento Region! Workforce demands are shifting across our region in response to the climate crisis, policy mandates, and economic drivers.
The Climate, Justice, and Jobs Summit, which took place on Tuesday, March 30th, 2021 from 9:00 AM – 1:00 PM, explored how our region’s response to this critical moment will determine the roadmap for access to high-road clean economy jobs as we move to a low carbon economy.
Spearheaded by City of Sacramento Councilmember Eric Guerra and Sacramento Metropolitan Air Quality Management District Executive Director Dr. Alberto Ayala, this event included presentations on current climate legislation, justice and inclusion, and workforce development efforts. We also heard from a panel of youth and community members working in clean economy jobs, learn about their pathway, roadblocks, and effective supports.

Energy, Construction, and Utilities (ECU) Regional Industry Advisory
Join us on Friday, February 19, 2021 for Los Rios Community College District’s Energy, Construction, and Utilities (ECU) Regional Industry Advisory meeting!
With the growing calls for a carbon-free economy and rapidly changing industry dynamics, the Greater Sacramento Region’s ECU sector requires a trained workforce that can simultaneously meet labor market demands and implement environmental sustainability practices. For equitable outcomes, this transition to a green economy must also ensure that quality jobs are accessible to diverse populations. This virtual ECU Advisory meeting will examine these topics and more.
Join the conversation as we seek to build a trained and equitable regional workforce in this important field. Your valuable participation will help guide Community College Strong Workforce Program investments for ECU programs, certificates, and curricula.

Workforce Needs Assessment: Mental & Behavioral Health (2020)
This 2020 report presents findings on the need for training and education for mental and behavioral health (MBH) workers.
The North/Far North Center of Excellence (COE) conducted an analysis of the labor market, the quality of job opportunities, pathway opportunities, and education and training offerings to better understand the Sacramento region’s MBH workforce. The study examines five job categories: miscellaneous entry-level and paraprofessional MBH occupations; social workers; clinical counselors and psychologists; psychiatric technicians; and psychiatrists.
