Set in motion by an executive order from Governor Schwarzenegger in June 2005 and renewed in November 2006, the California Partnership for the San Joaquin Valley is an unprecedented public-private partnership sharply focused on improving the region’s economic vitality and quality of life for the 3.9 million residents who call the San Joaquin Valley home. The Partnership is addressing the challenges of the region by implementing measurable actions on six major initiatives to help the San Joaquin Valley emerge as California’s 21st Century Opportunity.
With Executive Order S-17-08, Governor Schwarzenegger in December 2008 once again extended the Partnership.
