Celebrating 30 Years!

For Our Children’s Future: 30th Anniversary Speaker Series

The Children’s Partnership (TCP) is proud to celebrate thirty years as a premier non-profit policy organization dedicated to moving the needle forward for the health and well-being of all children. Starting in October 2023, TCP is honoring its 30th anniversary with our “For Our Children’s Future: 30th Anniversary Speaker Series.” We are honoring our belief that California is stronger in its commitment to children because of work we have accomplished together over the last 30 years. At the same time, as our state and nation continue to be at a critical juncture in their commitment to children, we are recommitting ourselves to the work needed to ensure the healthy development of all children as we look to the next 30 years and beyond.

What Health4All Means for California’s Kids

On August 29, 2024, The Children’s Partnership will host Ricardo Lara, current California Insurance Commissioner and Health4All champion, in conversation with TCP President Mayra E. Alvarez.

Health4All is the successful campaign to make health care accessible to all Californians, regardless of immigration status, and it went into effect in January 2024. You are invited to join us for this online event featuring a screening of a short documentary on the history of winning Health4All in California, followed by a fireside chat between Lara and Alvarez on the decades of movement building required to win this important legislation. The conversation will celebrate the years of shared advocacy that makes Health4All possible, as well as tackle the importance of intersectional advocacy and storytelling to support child well-being in California and across the country.
