61 years ago today, the March on Washington marked one of the largest mobilizations for racial equality in American history. This landmark march and protest was critical in advocating for the rights of Black folks and continues to be the blueprint for organization and mass mobilizations today!

Über uns
The California Endowment is a $4B+ private, statewide health foundation established in 1996 whose mission is to expand access to affordable, quality health care for underserved individuals and communities, and to promote fundamental improvements in the health status of all Californians. We're changing the narrative around health to ensure health and justice for all. And each day we, along with our community partners, seek ways to improve the state of health in California. Headquartered in downtown Los Angeles, we have regional offices in Sacramento, Oakland, Fresno, and San Diego, with program staff working throughout the state. We challenge the conventional wisdom that medical settings and individual choices are solely responsible for people's health. Instead, we believe that health happens in neighborhoods, schools, and with prevention.

Welcoming Ashley Monterrosa to The California Endowment's Board of Directors! ✊🌟 Monterrosa is a San Francisco native who has emerged as an educator, organizer, advocate, strategist, and storyteller. We look forward to having her as a tireless advocate for youth, especially those whose ideas, opinions, and potential have historically been devalued and underrepresented.

Today marks Women's Equality Day, which commemorates the day women were given the right to vote. While women can vote now, the struggle for gender equality continues across so many fronts: reproductive justice, trans rights, the wage gap, and so many more. We have so much to celebrate, but so much to fight for.

We're welcoming Edgar Ernesto Ibarra Guiterrez to The California Endowment's Board of Directors! He serves as the Communication and Leadership Coordinator at Motivating Individual Leadership for Public Advancement (MILPA). For the last five years, he's worked directly with communities impacted by mass incarceration through local and state policy advocacy, mentoring youth and young adults returning from incarceration through cultural healing programs focusing on Palabra (One’s Word) and cultural teachings. We're excited to have him on board and for his experiences to guide us as we change California community by community.

So many unhoused neighbors were once foster kids who aged out of the system—be kind! Our unhoused neighbors are just as deserving of life, happiness, and peace. Especially the youth.
How many foster kids are homeless in L.A. County? Nobody knows
