Governance Subcommittee

Building a Strong Foundation: The Governance Subcommittee's Role

Our Governance Subcommittee has played a pivotal role in shaping the foundation and guiding principles of the California Jobs First program and Steering Committee. Through dedicated efforts and a collaborative spirit, they actively worked towards creating a robust governance framework for our LAHRTC.

One of our primary focuses has been to determine shared values and address governance requirements through open and inclusive territory and group dialogues. Thought-provoking questions have guided their progress, allowing them to delve deep into the key aspects of governance that align with the vision and objectives of our initiative.

Our subcommittee members have taken on the responsibility of shaping the governance model itself, ensuring that it reflects the core principles of transparency, inclusivity, and effective decision-making. Together, they have developed a comprehensive framework that serves as a strong backbone for the Los Angeles High Road Transition Collaborative, fostering an environment where all voices are heard and valued.

As of August 2023, the Governance Subcommittee has completed its mandate and has officially dissolved after successfully establishing the CJF Governance Model. We are excited to pass on the torch to the newly seated Steering Committee, knowing that they will carry forward the founding principles of our framework. 

 

California Jobs First - LA HRTC Governance Model:

The CJF Governance Model operates through the collaborative efforts of the Hub Structure, the Steering Committee, and the Stewardship Committee. These groups work together, ensuring a smooth flow of data and information throughout the process. 

The Hub Structure which encompasses 90 SPA Based Micrograntees, 12 Affinity Hub Leads, and 8 Table Partner Leads, actively engages in outreach and receives feedback from targeted stakeholders, enabling the development of an inclusive economic regional plan. The valuable insights and data these tables collect are then shared with the Steering Committee. 

As the validating body, the Steering Committee incorporates the feedback and data from the Hub Structure. They make informed decisions based on this information and guide the governance structure. The Stewardship Committee plays a vital role in implementing the decisions made by the Governance Body. They serve as facilitators and technical advisors, ensuring that the decisions are effectively translated into action. 

Through this collaborative process, the data and information flow from the Hub Structure to the Steering Committee and then to the Stewardship Committee, ensuring a coordinated and inclusive approach within the CJF Governance Model.
