Lessons from The California Endowment’s Building Healthy Communities Initiative

In November 2021, CSSP hosted a virtual Learning, Equity, and Power (LEaP) Pad featuring a conversation between The California Endowment’s (TCE) President and CEO and two of TCE’s President’s Youth Council members about the importance of sharing power with youth, and how foundations can authentically make space to partner with youth. This session, which is part of the larger LEaP initiative, highlights lessons and insights from The California Endowment’s Building Healthy Communities. This LEaP Pad features:

  • Christopher Covington, President’s Youth Council Member (Former), TCE
  • Karla Ortiz, President’s Youth Council Member, TCE
  • Dr. Robert Ross, President and CEO, TCE
