Latino-Led Economic Opportunity and
Community Wealth in Placer County
Latino Community Development Corporation Feasibility Initiative
​
A community-driven effort exploring how a Latino-focused Community Development Corporation (CDC) could strengthen economic opportunity, housing stability, entrepreneurship, and long-term community resilience across Western Placer County.
​
About the Initiative
The Latino Leadership Council (LLC), in partnership with Sierra Business Council, Sacramento Environmental Justice Coalition, and Aquaria Funding Solutions, recently completed a Feasibility Study exploring the creation of a Latino-focused Community Development Corporation (CDC) in Western Placer County.
​
This initiative was developed in response to long-standing economic disparities impacting Latino families, workers, entrepreneurs, and renters throughout the region — despite Latinos playing a critical role in the local economy and workforce.
​Through research, interviews, focus groups, and community engagement, the study examined whether a community-led CDC model could help address gaps in:
​
-
Affordable housing and homeownership
-
Small business development
-
Workforce opportunity and job training
-
Financial education and wealth-building
-
Long-term economic inclusion​
​
The findings were clear: there is a strong opportunity for a Latino-led organization to help strengthen economic mobility, community stability, and regional resilience in Placer County.
