About the Program

Once again, the Golden State is transforming itself—in ways that will affect the lives of all Californians. Economic innovation, climate change, and demographic shifts are altering the state’s social, political, and fiscal landscape. And major policy reforms in education, health, and corrections are only accelerating the pace of change. Please join us for a conversation with past and present state leaders about the unique challenges and opportunities of governing in a time of change.
