Leadership

The New California Coalition was founded by a deserve group of leaders from across the state who were driven to take action on California's most pressing problems.

Cost of living, homelessness, crime, and year-after-year droughts are threatening California's long-term prosperity. We are bringing people together to demand solutions to build an equitable future for our state.
