MAJOR WIN IN CALIFORNIA. No young person should be denied access to mental health care due to income level. Thanks to CA Gov Gavin Newsom the state has taken a critical step toward removing barriers for youth who are insured the state's Medi-Cal program. youthlaw.org/news/governor-s…
ALT Every young person should have access to the support and health care they need to navigate life’s challenges and thrive. Ensuring the same consent standard applies to all youth, regardless of income level, is a critical step in that direction

Here's a shot of the first-ever Progress Pride flag being flown outside of @CountyofLA's #HahnHallofAdministration. I enjoyed being part of today's celebration focused on inclusion and fighting discrimination. The #rainbow conchas were also a treat!

Today, we celebrate our progress in the fight for equality. From Stonewall to the Supreme Court, trailblazers have fought and organized and campaigned so that LGBTQ young people today can live a more authentic life full of love.
That's the extraordinary power of our community.

With the recent overturn of Roe v. Wade, it's more important than ever to ensure that our foster youth know their rights when it comes to reproductive health. Foster Youth in California are protected under the state constitution and still have the right to seek abortion care.
