4CA Policymaker Education Day on
Childhood Adversity, Sacramento

The California Campaign to Counter Childhood Adversity (4CA) invites you to Sacramento for Policymaker Education Day. Our lawmakers need to hear from you about how adverse childhood experiences and childhood trauma affect your community and what they can do to help. Join with allies from across California to engage your elected officials on this important issue.

Who: 4CA Policymaker Education Day is designed for California residents who care about preventing and mitigating the effects of childhood adversity. We welcome young people, parents and neighbors, people who work in juvenile justice, health, education, early childhood or child welfare, and others.

What: All participants will be given tools and training to prepare for afternoon meetings with state senators, assembly members, legislative staffers and agency officials. Newcomers will be matched with experienced advocates. Lunch will be provided, and limited funds are available to reimburse travel expenses.

Join Us! We'll send registration instructions and event details in the coming weeks. In the meantime, invite your friends and learn about the Campaign at 4cakids.org. We look forward to seeing you on July 11!
