City of Oakland, in the SF Bay Area

The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA), also known as the bipartisan infrastructure bill, authorizes $1.2 trillion for infrastructure and transportation spending. Join us on December 7 for an inspiring virtual convening to explore how we can harness this opportunity to deliver transformative benefits for Bay Area communities impacted by longstanding inequities.

You’ll learn about:

  • the latest news about how IIJA funds will flow to the region
  • national models and best practices for catalyzing equitable outcomes
  • examples of fundable community-oriented infrastructure projects

We encourage Bay Area elected officials, public agency staff, and nonprofit leaders to attend.

Co-hosted by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco and Bay Area Regional Health Inequities Initiative (BARHII), in collaboration with the Strong Prosperous And Resilient Communities Challenge (SPARCC).
