Key Priorities
Supporting Healing for Ypung People
Increasing jail and prison penalties for kids and locking them up without access to education, therapy, or family support doesn’t help them or keep us safe— it harms them and fuels the roots of violence in our communities. We need to invest in what actually works: early intervention in schools, culturally rooted and evidence informed diversion programs, expanded behavioral health services, cross-sector collaboration, and specialized courts for high-need youth.
Expanding Voluntary Care
Make voluntary, culturally competent behavioral healthcare more widely available and resist efforts to mass institutionalize the most vulnerable among us.
Affordable Housing Support
$110 million to fund housing assistance and services and affordable housing development to address the rising homelessness and housing crisis across the state.
Recovery Series
Taking a public health approach to issues of substance use and avoiding the compounding harms of the war on drugs. Expanding access to medically assisted treatment for opioid use disorder through pharmacies. Support for a study on Opioid Treatment Centers.
