Empowering Women through Advocacy and Action
We can connect hearts, transform lives and foster a sense of belonging for everyone
Commission Policy Pillars
The California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls is promoting a policy agenda that enhances the economic security of women and girls, enhances their health and wellness, and makes sure that their well-being is viewed through an equitable and intersectional lens in collaboration with advocates, the state Legislature, state agencies, and businesses.
Women & Girls’ Economic Security
This pillar helps women return to the workforce with protections and flexibilities that lifts women and girls out of poverty and provide opportunities and a robust care infrastructure for success. This includes:
-
Improve access high-quality, affordable childcare and education.
-
Support flexible family-friendly workplaces.
-
Ensure fair pay and job opportunities.
-
Strengthen and enforce protections against discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.
Women & Girls’ Wellness
The pandemic has further entrenched the health and safety inequalities faced by women, especially women of color. The Commission is working towards ensuring women and girls can live happier, healthier lives by addressing the growing disparities in health equity and safety. This includes:
-
Accessibility, Availability, Affordability to Care and Preventative Care.
-
Reproductive Health and Justice.
-
Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence Prevention and Support.
Equity & Justice
As we advance our mission of improving the lives of women and girls, we adopt and support intersectional, equitable measures that value all lives and experiences, especially women and girls of color. We strive to eliminate disparities regardless of your age, race, creed, abilities, socio-economic status, and sexual orientation. This includes:
-
Gender and racial wealth gap.
-
Gender and racial parity in leadership roles.
-
Strengthen and enforce protections against discrimination, harassment, and retaliation.
