OUR PLAN FOR CHANGE
Uplift San Bernardino is Focused on the Future
Launch the Future Workforce Into Local Jobs
Ignite Upward Mobility in Our Community
Foster Conditions for Growing Roots Here
Thrive Together Through Collective Impact
Assumptions
• Lack of local education and professional networks block upward mobility for residents
• Our young talent is leaving our city to find success elsewhere that exists for them here
• The youth of San Bernardino want to write a new story for our community
Within this strategic framework, we will:
1. Convene leadership work groups to change systems & policies
2. Effectively inspire community voice & engagement to inform better decisions & increase access to opportunities especially for youth
3. Create shared understanding of issues & opportunities based on research & data
4. Unlock resources for aligned programs of promise
5. Mobilize people and resources to fill in gaps identified between systems
6. Promote accountability through a transparent history of our decisions, progress, & learning
7. Equity and inclusion is the lens, mirror, and focus of all we do
