Cal State LA's Civic & Social Innovation Group (CaSIG)
We propose the CaSIG Rooted Innovation Incubator (RII) as the vehicle to equip Cal State LA students to spark social enterprises and nonprofits throughout LA that facilitate economic opportunity and promote progress in a number of issues. The RII changes the game of social innovation for students who are intimately aware of their communities’ needs and opens doors for brilliant students who are under-resourced to develop their ideas and climb the economic ladder as they serve their communities.
