About California Budget & Policy Center

The California Budget & Policy Center (Budget Center) is a nonpartisan, research and analysis nonprofit committed to advancing public policies that improve the lives of Californians who are denied opportunities to share in the state’s wealth and deserve the dignity and support to lead thriving lives in our communities. We highlight inequities in our state — specifically in budget choices and public policies affecting low and middle income households, women, immigrants, American Indians, Asian, Black, Latinx, and Pacific Islander Californians, as well as other Californians of color, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ Californians — and identify policy pathways that expand economic opportunities and promote well-being for all Californians. The Budget Center is leading the way forward on the policy and budget paths needed now and in the years to come for Californians, and is a trusted source for policymakers, advocates, community and philanthropic leaders, and the media navigating California’s most pressing issues. We provide dependable, timely, policy guidance and solutions through our independent research and analysis, and engage in strategic collaborations and communications to expand equitable economic opportunities and promote well-being for all Californians.
