SANTA PAULA — Join us Thursday, April 30th for our Local Business Roundtable in Santa Paula featuring two powerful perspectives shaping Ventura County’s future workforce and business climate.
We’re proud to welcome Dr. John Fankhauser, Director of the Ventura County Health Care Agency, alongside guest speakers from the Ventura County Community College District and their 126 Forward Initiative.
With decades of leadership in public health—including serving as CEO of Ventura County Medical Center and Santa Paula Hospital—Dr. Fankhauser brings real-world insight into the systems that impact our workforce, public health, and local economy.
You’ll also hear how the Community College District is working directly with employers to build the next generation workforce—developing career pathways in high-demand fields like healthcare, cybersecurity, skilled trades, and advanced technology. Their work with local businesses along the 126 corridor is helping align education with real industry needs and economic growth.
This is a straightforward, no-nonsense look at two issues every business is dealing with: workforce and healthcare. If you’re hiring, managing employees, or planning ahead, this conversation matters.

Date: Thursday, April 30th
