Cohort 3 will be a five-month Youth Council term focused on promoting mental wellness and highlighting its importance within our community, especially among youth. Throughout these five months, the cohort will work to create awareness around mental health, encourage open and supportive conversations, and help reduce the stigma surrounding mental wellness. By bringing youth together and connecting them with resources, support, and positive ways to prioritize their well-being, Cohort 3 hopes to create a stronger, more understanding, and supportive community for all.
The Reimagine & Run Fellowship is a nonpartisan civic education and leadership training program from Stockton Service Corps. It’s a 7-month fellowship for AmeriCorps and SSC alumni who are curious about running for local office and committed to the Stockton/San Joaquin community.

Stockton is best led by the people who have already given back to it. Duration: 7 months. Sessions: 6 total, in person. (December 2026 to June 2027)
Who Should Apply:
