TOWARD A SHARED VISION

Join us for a two-day virtual convening of Inland Empire community leaders from education, business, government, and nonprofit sectors who share a vision for increasing equitable educational attainment, adding more qualified people to the workforce, and contributing to a thriving regional economy. Event participants will work together in sessions and workshops to discuss collaborative solutions that will drive transformation.

“Our ability to work together is what accelerates real transformational change. It begins with increasing educational attainment through an efficient, high-quality education system with a specific emphasis on accelerating success for historically marginalized groups. This, in turn, fuels a robust Inland Empire economy and creates wealth and prosperity for all residents of the region.”
