Common Sense to Launch Grassroots Advocacy Campaign in California

Common Sense Kids Action is launching a multiyear, seven-figure parent-mobilization campaign to make kids California's top priority. The long-term grassroots mobilization campaign is building a movement of parents who will organize around a set of common-sense public policies aimed at ensuring kids thrive.

The campaign will organize around a variety of issues this year: the November 2016 ballot, including a kid-centric voter guide; the Right Start Commission recommendations, which will focus on improving California’s early childhood systems and will be released in April; and Common Sense Kids Action's legislative priorities, including high-quality early childhood, schools designed to ensure every student graduates ready to succeed in college and career, and Common Sense Support for Families, including policies that address poverty and other barriers to providing children with the right start, such as paid sick and family and medical leave.

Common Sense is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization. Learn more at www.commonsensemedia.org/kids-action
