IERS Report Jul 2021 Cover

The Inclusive Economic Recovery Strategy (IERS) identifies ways that SCAG can work with local partners to foster inclusive economic prosperity as the region continues to recover from the economic and social disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic. The IERS reflects SCAG’s commitment to justice, equity, diversity and inclusion and the final report will help SCAG further explore the integration of policy goals related to inclusive economic growth in the development and adoption of the Connect SoCal Regional Transportation Plan/Sustainable Community Strategy every four years. 

SCAG developed the IERS as an activity of the Racial Equity Early Action Plan in close collaboration with stakeholders and practitioners, focusing on recommendations that SCAG is well positioned to lead or implement with an appropriate partner. The SCAG Regional Council adopted the final “An Inclusive Economic Recovery Strategy for the SCAG Region” report and recommendations on July 1, 2021.   

In Spring 2022, with support from State Senator Susan Rubio, SCAG received one-time grant funding from the California Workforce Development Board to implement several core recommendations from the IERS and to guide SCAG’s efforts in advancing inclusive economic growth.
