Make California a healthy, vibrant, inclusive place to live, play, work, and learn.
About us
Our North Star: We envision a Healthy California for All where every individual belongs to a strong and thriving community. Where all our children can play and learn, and where we are confident that we have done all we can to pass to them a state they can lead into the future. Where older and disabled Californians can live with purpose and dignity, and where they are supported and valued. Where equity is not just a word or concept but the core value. Where we constantly pursue social and racial justice by not only lifting all boats but especially those boats that need to be lifted more. Where health care is affordable, accessible, equitable and high-quality so it drives toward improved health. Where we prioritize prevention and the upstream factors that impact an individual’s health and well-being. Where we are committed to tackling the economic inequalities that force many Californians to live on the street. Where necessities like housing and childcare are complimented by access to physical and behavioral health services. Where we see the whole person and where programs and services address the social, cultural and linguistic needs of the individuals they serve. Where climate threats collide with forward leaning health practices and policies that visibly turn the tide toward community resilience. And where we see our diversity as a strength, and where we embrace a joint responsibility to take care of one another.

We all know how hard it can be to raise kids in a world where they’re constantly bombarded with messages about food, their bodies, and health online. As a mom, it’s difficult to see these “what I eat in a day” posts and not think about how this may shape my kids’ thoughts about their own bodies. So I worked with the California Partners Project to create the Nourishing Mind and Body Guide as part of our Tech/Life Balance series. Designed for busy families of all kinds, it offers simple, evidence-based strategies to navigate the noise and turn mealtimes into intentional moments to connect with your kids about what they might be experiencing. Inside the guide, you’ll find: -- Reflection questions about your own relationship with food, body image, and technology -- Prompts to help identify what’s showing up in your child’s online world -- Harmful online trends and terms to know -- Conversation starters to connect with your kids -- Tips to foster healthy habits at home -- Guidance if you’re worried about disordered eating One conversation, one meaningful meal at a time, we can guide our kids towards balance, and this resource offers the tools to get started. 📘 Download the free guide here: https://lnkd.in/dtf_nzN4
