The event also included several youth performers, praise dancers, poetry & more.
Just hours ago today, nearly 20,000 people lined at the Staples Center in Los Angeles and millions from across the world in cebrating his life and legacy.

Upcoming Events & Activities
Road to California Recovery- Central Valley Conference

In the next two years, Californa will receive more than $85 billion in federal stimulus funding to spur economic growth and to create jobs. State, local, and regional agencies are working hard to organize a clear process for effectively distributing the federal money and maximizing its potential for creating jobs. However, much confusion and misinformation still remains.
The conferences will bring together local, regional, state, and federal experts from numerous industry sectors including transportation, education, broadband, workforce training, and energy. The discussions will provide practical and technical guidance on how local communities--including public agencies and private employers.
