CA lags behind other states in providing support for #211. States like Michigan, Indiana, Washington, Pennsylvania, New York, &Texas have all pledged ongoing financial support for their #211 providers. Please vote YES on #SB318 so CA isn’t left behind #CALeg
From finding food assistance to temporary + permanent housing
From from getting healthcare w/ vision + dental coverage, to disaster relief services
#211 is there to listen
#211 is there to help
Vote YES on #SB318 #211
211 is the unseen and compassionate hand that guides people through some of the most challenging moments of their lives. California must support and expand this critical tool to ensure our families & communities thrive. Vote YES on #SB318! #CALeg
Without state funding for #211, the dominoes will fall, disconnecting hundreds of thousands of our neighbors from the systems meant to help them. Vote YES on #SB318 to support #211 in the way it has helped each and every one of our communities. #211forAll
#CALeg: #211 extends the reach of our state programs and services to even the farthest corners of California. #211 in essence acts as early intervention & connects people with the resources they need, helping prevent more severe crises from developing.#211Infrastructure
Right now, communities across CA are struggling to make ends meet. Inflation, economic uncertainty, natural disasters, and many other factors are leaving households worried and afraid. #211 & helps families & individuals by connecting them to resources in their community.
The #211Infrastructure Act will provide desperately needed funding to California’s #211 system so that families & individuals can access the resources they need in their very own communities.
Today, Senator @rosilicie will present the #211Infrastructure Act in Committee. As a bipartisan bill, #SB318 will support #211 providers across CA for all of our communities.

Thank you @POTUS for championing family-friendly policies like paid family and medical leave, affordable child care, and access to preschool for 3- and 4-year-olds. 🙏
When kids get the best start in life and families can thrive financially, we all benefit!

Last year, childhood poverty was cut in HALF by the #ChildTaxCredit. When it expired, millions of kids fell back into poverty. Time to bring back the expanded, monthly #CTC conversations on Capitol Hill! https://t.co/G1yNeJ6rGn
