Californians for Justice
is a statewide youth-powered organization fighting for racial justice.
We believe that young people are the leaders we need to create the healthy, just and vibrant schools all of our communities deserve.
WHERE WE ARE
We are a statewide organization working in the State Capitol and with a special focus in these four key regions:
IMPACT

Community Power
We know that strengthening our democracy is critical to reaching our goals of economic prosperity and racial justice.
