Following Mayor Brown’s recent creation of the Community Wealth Building Task Force, the group will hold its kickoff meeting to outline its objectives.  The goal of the group is to create new jobs, expand business opportunities and reduce health and wealth disparities, with a focus on Northwest Jacksonville. 
The 15-member task force is created by executive order and includes 12 members appointed by the mayor to represent health care, finance, education, job training, philanthropy, nonprofits, small businesses, the faith-based sector and community organizations.  The task force also includes three ex officio representatives appointed by City Council, JTA and U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
