Improving California's Aging Services and Long Term Care System - Blueprint for Partnerships Between California Foundations and State Policymakers

This Blueprint represents a coordinated effort by seven California foundations to highlight how foundations might engage in collaboration and partnership with state policymakers to address the issues and respond to the challenges facing the ALTC system in California. The foundations signing on to this Blueprint are willing to make available their expertise and resources, as is uniquely possible for each Foundation, to California policymakers, the new Administration of Governor Jerry Brown and the 2011-12 California Legislature. The purpose of this document is to introduce the participating foundations, provide a context for initiating dialogue with state policymakers, and identify areas of opportunity for collaboration and future partnerships.
