Child Advocates' Roundtable

Background / General Information

The Child Advocates' Roundtable, established in 1990, is an affiliation of over 300 statewide and regional children's policy organizations, representing over twenty issue disciplines (e.g., child abuse prevention, child care, education, poverty, housing, juvenile justice). The Roundtable is convened monthly by the Children's Advocacy Institute, and is committed to providing a setting where statewide and locally-based children's advocates gather with advocates from other children's issue disciplines to share resources, information, and knowledge, and strategize on behalf of children; an opportunity to educate each other about the variety of issues and legislation that affect children and youth — facilitating prioritization of issues and minimizing infighting over limited state resources historically budgeted for children's programs; an opportunity to collaborate on joint projects that promote the interests of children and families; and a setting to foster a children's political movement, committed to ensuring that every child in California is economically secure, gets a good education, has access to health care, and lives in a safe environment.

The Roundtable generally meets the second Thursday of each month from 12:00—2:00 p.m. However, in order to accommodate other meetings focused on the current budget debate, some upcoming Roundtable meetings have been moved to alternate dates. Here is the schedule for the next few months:

  • May 29, 2008
  • June 12, 2008
  • July 10, 2008
  • August 21, 2008
  • September 18, 2008

In addition to the main Roundtable session, subcommittee meetings on foster care, health care, and child care are also held, as follows:

  • Foster Care Subcommittee: 10:00 a.m. — 11:00 a.m.
  • Health Care Subcommittee: 11:00 a.m. — 12:00 p.m.
  • Child Care Subcommittee: 11:00 a.m. — 12:00 p.m.
  • Child Advocates' Roundtable: 12:00 p.m. — 2:00 p.m.

Roundtable and subcommittee meetings are held at:

1300 N Street, 2nd Floor
