The Stockton Mobility Collective (SMC) is an exciting new and transformative project, which was established due to funding from the California Air Resources Board (CARB). CARB awarded SJCOG $7.4 million from its grant program called Sustainable Transportation Equity Project (STEP). The grant aims to address community residents’ transportation needs, improve air quality, and increase residents' access to key destinations (e.g., schools, grocery stores, workplaces, daycares, community centers, and health care facilities). STEP’s overarching purpose is to increase transportation equity in disadvantaged and low-income communities throughout California. 

The SMC project is aimed at improving and increasing transportation options for Stockton residents who are looking for clean, affordable ways to travel to job opportunities, school(s), doctor’s appointments, grocery stores and other key destinations. Stockton Mobility Collective will offer Stockton residents access to nonprofit electric carsharing and bikesharing programs. SMC also includes a workforce development program where participants will learn vital skills in the technology and operations of the carsharing and bikesharing programs, and possibly discover new career opportunities. Stockton Mobility Collective aims to provide these services in historically underserved neighborhoods where mobility challenges are well documented and the need is greatest.

The Stockton Mobility Collective is funded by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) as part of California Climate Investments (CCI), a statewide initiative that puts billions of Cap-and-Trade dollars to work reducing greenhouse gas emissions, strengthening the economy, and improving public health and the environment — particularly in disadvantaged communities. Moving California, part of CCI, focuses on increasing education and awareness of clean transportation options, while emphasizing program successes and providing guidance on how California’s communities and residents can both benefit and access clean transportation opportunities.
