Hello friends,
The new year is already moving at a rapid pace, and we are definitely in interesting times. I’m so glad I’m connected to a group of community leaders like yourselves who continually inspire me to continue with the daily grind of community-level work. Let’s all keep moving toward building a healthier, more vibrant community.
On that note, this month’s focus will be written by julie vue, our Senior Program Officer who has been instrumental in our DRIVE work. julie will be sharing about our 2025 vision of exploring the following questions:
How do we look at our economy through a different narrative?
What does that look like?
How does that inform us on how to deepen our DRIVE work that can lead to large scale upward mobility for our families that have historically struggled with poverty?
Thanks for your continual connection,
Artie Padilla
