About the founder, Bill Jacobson, mpa.
- Community Builder, Calling Back the Salmon
- Technology Leader, Strategist & Artist
I’m an experienced and innovative community strategist who understands how to use technology to support and cultivate purposeful human relationships.
In my early career I led successful initiatives to help local government address the community life of seniors, restore culturally valuable property, and improve community outreach communication. I also developed alternative energy conservation and generation proposals for a major utility provider.
Later, working as a Technology Consultant and Trainer, I provided software and technology services to IBM Business Centers throughout the West. As a technology strategist for a fortune 1000 organization, I developed and oversaw the implementation of a nationwide shared network and gui environment.
In 1993 I opened Bill Jacobson Internet, providing web development and delivering interactive websites for numerous small business,, government, non-profit and grass roots constituencies.
Today, as a Community Builder & Technology Strategist for Social Alliance Network, I bring this wealth of expertise, insight, and creative ideas to people who recognize that technology can enhance purposeful relationships.
I am about isolating, overseeing and implementing action that builds balanced, productive and meaningful relationships between people and the community they serve. I am diplomatic and fluent in communicating with government, business, NGO and Tribal communities.
In addition to my work with Social Alliance Network, I serve as community builder for Calling Back the Salmon, Tribal Representative in Federal Energy Regulatory Commission dam relicensing, and serve as Commissioner and Treasurer for the California Indian Water Commission.
