Our six-county coalition is working to attract investment and expand opportunities for Central Coast residents. Under California Jobs First, we have a promising opportunity to create a forward-thinking development plan that can not only help the region survive but thrive, creating new generational wealth and prosperity. We believe those best suited to help a community prosper are those who live in that community.
