The October FOCUS Forum is the first in a three-part fall series on Economic Instability in Onondaga County. Participants do not need to commit to all three. Join FOCUS for a hybrid public forum where local leaders will explore the structural and historical conditions that have shaped financial hardship in Onondaga County, and what the data tells us about where we stand today. This discussion is informed by local history, regional research, and the economic forces that have shaped our communities over time. Panelists will provide an overview of the historical arc that brought us to the current moment and a grounded look at what the data reveals about financial instability across our region, drawing on their professional roles and direct experience studying, documenting, and working within these systems. The conversation will highlight the institutions, policies, and decisions, both past and present, that have shaped economic life in Central New York, and the ways residents can begin to understand the full picture. The Forum will emphasize building shared knowledge, including understanding the historical roots of financial instability, examining what current conditions look like across Onondaga County, and creating a foundation for the conversations ahead, while allowing panelists to address emerging issues and priorities. After presentations from our panel, the conversation moves to a moderated Q&A, giving attendees the opportunity to ask questions and discover ways to engage with local priorities and initiatives. This is a welcoming, respectful space for community members to learn, engage, and explore ways to be actively involved in shaping the civic life of Central New York.
