Research Data Walks
During RRRISE's monthly Collaborative meetings, the California Center for Rural Policy often shares some of the data we've been collecting about our region - Tribal Lands, Del Norte, Humboldt, Lake, and Mendocino Counties.
Our data orbits the Redwood Region's economy, key industries, labor force characteristics, climate resilience, and public health issues that impact communities’ well-being. We've curated a collection of these "Research Data Walks" to inform our community about the region's unique strengths and needs.
If you're interested in a data deep-dive, check out the analyses highlighted in our RRRISE Regional Plan Part 1.
