2019-20 Pro-Kid Policy Agenda for California
Children Now
The 2019-20 Pro-Kid Policy Agenda for California is the comprehensive roadmap at the state level to ensure that all children have the necessary supports to reach their full potential. California has an obligation to end systemic injustices that create barriers to kids of color, as well as kids living in poverty and undocumented kids, from growing up healthy and ready for college, career, and civic life. Policymakers are urged to use the Pro-Kid Agenda as a guide to ensure California's systems for children are equitable, well-funded, high-quality, and accountable to kids' success. The Agenda was compiled by Children Now, the only research, policy development, and advocacy organization covering the full-range of key children's issues, from prenatal through age 26, including early childhood development, K-12, higher education, children's health, foster care, and youth justice. Children Now coordinates The Children's Movement of California--a member-based constituency supporting kids that now includes more than 3,000 business, parent, labor, civil rights, faith, and community organizations. The organization also leads, co-leads or participates in more than 80 coalitions around the state. The Agenda reflects the top priorities of each of those coalitions and their members.
