How to join San Jose’s disability advisory group, feedback sessions or one-on-one meetings
Summary
The City of San Jose’s Office of Racial and Social Equity is recruiting participants for an advisory group (4–6 month commitment), community feedback sessions (60–90 minutes, likely in September) and one-on-one meetings (60–90 minutes between July and September). Sign-up is via web form or email.
The Office of Racial and Social Equity asked San Jose residents, caregivers, service providers and advocates to participate in shaping a strategic accessibility framework through three options: an advisory group, community feedback sessions and one-on-one meetings. "There are 3 ways that you can participate," Sheila Sanchez said while outlining the options.
Details provided by the presenter: the advisory group is intended as a four- to six-month commitment that will meet two to three times beginning in July and include a half-day retreat in the fall; the office said it hopes to provide some form of compensation for advisory members. Community feedback sessions will be small-group discussions lasting about 60 to 90 minutes and will likely occur in September. One-on-one feedback meetings are planned as one-time 60- to 90-minute sessions available between July and September.
To sign up, Sanchez directed listeners to the web form linked on the office web page or to email the Office of Racial and Social Equity. The transcript lists the contact as "sjracialsocialequity@SanJoseCA.gov"; the city email address is presented here in normalized form as sjracialsocialequity@sanjoseca.gov. Participants who sign up will be contacted with scheduling details and next steps.
