💼 Petition: Launch a Homeless Workforce for Beautification of Stockton
Shelter Outline proposes a transformative initiative: empower unhoused individuals through paid city beautification work.
This program would offer immediate employment at $10/hour (tax-free) while restoring pride and purpose to Stockton’s public spaces.
Where This Workforce Could Serve
- 🌳 Tree planting and brush clearing
- 🧽 Graffiti removal and sidewalk cleaning
- 🛠️ Sandbag preparation for flood zones
- 🏞️ Park clearing and landscape care
Why This Matters
Thousands of city maintenance tasks go understaffed or underfunded, while hundreds of willing individuals remain unhoused and unemployed.
Shelter Outline’s workforce model creates fast-tracked purpose, skill-building, and community restoration.
“Work isn’t just a job it’s dignity. And everyone deserves a place to contribute.”
We urge Stockton city officials to approve this workforce initiative and help fund the infrastructure needed to launch.
Say YES to beautifying our city through dignity-driven employment.
