The "2025 Pro-Kid Policy Agenda for California" is the comprehensive state-level roadmap to ensure that all children have the necessary services and supports to reach their full potential. California has an obligation to end systemic injustices that create barriers to kids of color, as well as kids living in poverty, kids living in immigrant families, and kids in the foster care system, from growing up healthy and ready for college, career, and civic life. This work has only become more urgent as the impacts of the LA fires, other environmental hazards, and lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic continue to have a disproportionate impact on the lives of California's kids, especially children of color. Kids are increasingly experiencing stress, social isolation, and disconnectedness, and youth mental health issues have reached crisis proportions. The authors urge policymakers to use the Pro-Kid Agenda as a guide to take long overdue action now to ensure California's systems for children are equitable, well-funded, high-quality, and accountable to kids' success. Doing right by all kids is not only the right thing to do, but it is also essential to the state's future and ability to thrive. California's continued economic growth and strong democracy is dependent on a healthy and well-educated workforce. State policymakers need to make smart, strategic, high-quality investments in California's children to address poverty and close the widening income divide.
