STORIES FROM THE COMMUNITY

AS A COMMUNITY-LED INITIATIVE, Stockton Rising engages residents, workers, local leaders, and others in efforts to advance community-defined goals for climate action, economic development, and more. This section provides a series of case studies of how such stakeholders have contributed to the rollout of Stockton Rising and/or benefited from the initiative’s suite of projects and plans. It is important to note that these stories represent only a small sample of the many individuals who have shaped — or been shaped by — Stockton Rising. Thus, their purpose is to be illustrative, but not exhaustive, of how Stockton Rising has touched the lives of community members.
