The Community Economic Mobilization Initiative (CEMI) assists nonprofits in building their knowledge and capacity to be poised to participate in funding opportunities.
Community Economic Mobilization Initiative (CEMI) Survey
In partnership with The Center at Sierra Health Foundation’s Community Economic Mobilization Initiative (CEMI), Edge Collaborative (Edge) and San Joaquin Community Foundation (SJCF) are excited to launch a countywide survey to help assess interest in public investment opportunities within the San Joaquin County ecosystem.
This survey is part of a philanthropic grantmaking initiative to assist regional nonprofits and other institutions in building their knowledge and capacity so that they are poised to participate competitively in upcoming local, state, and federal funding opportunities. This $1.6M initiative is funded by a grant from the Sierra Health Foundation. Please find more information about this opportunity here.
This survey aims to help facilitate competitive public funding applications by:
- Promoting project-oriented collaboration for public investment opportunities by publicly sharing project lists
- Understanding capacity building needs across organizations
CEMI is an innovative effort to advance equity, inclusion and the goals of federal and state climate-resilient economic development initiatives.
