Grade Sacramento County on Social Justice

 
 100% of survey complete.
SJPC envisions a Sacramento where all political decisions are made through a social justice lens. We define social justice as a redistribution of wealth, opportunities, and privileges to those who have not historically benefited from such investments so that we can all do well. 
  • Basically, is Sacramento County making political decisions that help people who are most vulnerable so that they can do well? Is that a priority versus an after-thought?
  • Does Sac County consider historical injustices and make decisions to right those wrongs?
That's what we are grading Sac County on through this survey. Thank you for taking it. Use the Grading Rubric which has explanations for general questions on performance and issue specific ones. 

Note: Sacramento County has seven cities and areas that are not cities (i.e. North Highlands, Carmichael, Arden Arcade). This survey focuses on the entire County and THEN drills down to ask about the City of Sacramento as well. We hope to include specific questions about the other cities in the County (i.e. Elk Grove, Rancho Cordova) as we get more capacity. 

P.S. the only questions you have to answer are 1, 2, & 3. But we'd appreciate it if you could answer the others.
