Stockton weighs future of Cesar Chavez library as California marks first Farmworkers Day ...Middle East

News by : (CBS sacramento) -

There was a community forum in Stockton on Monday evening, ahead of Tuesday's city council meeting, with residents voicing their concerns about what to do with the city-owned Cesar Chavez Central Library.

"We want to make sure that we are listening to the community. We're hearing their input, their thoughts, frustrations, ideas, collecting all of it and then be able to share that with my council colleagues and the community about really what the pulse is about what's happening right now," Enriquez said.

Alyssa Leiva, a community organizer with Stockton Stands, spearheaded a petition to remove Cesar Chavez from all public facilities in Stockton.

Right now, the petition has just under 340 signatures.

Leiva said she didn't get help when navigating the system. She really wants to see growth in pushing for trauma-informed care in Stockton. She knows other people have come forward and they are "pit stops in municipalities" with help and care.

Enríquez also said he supported state leadership changing the March 31 holiday to Farmworkers Day to focus on the movement rather than the individual.
