Since its inception, the Foundation has sought to ensure that the promise and possibility of California is attainable for all. Today, the California Communities Initiative (CCI) team works to achieve the Foundation’s three goals, with a particular focus on the goal of investing in families and communities. CCI supports partners working in six counties (Fresno, Monterey, San Benito, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and San Mateo) and at a statewide level to promote resilient and vibrant communities where families thrive and can build the lives they want.
Reflecting community priorities, CCI focuses on ensuring that:
Families have stable, affordable housing, so they can put down roots and be active in their communities;
Everyone, regardless of income or zip code, has access to clean air and water and safe green spaces for recreation, so they can be healthier and build resilience to the effects of climate change; and
Individuals and families have trusted local organizations they can turn to for support, resources, and a sense of community.
CCI seeks to connect communities to Sacramento to scale community-led solutions and ensure policies reflect the experiences of people and families across our state.
