SCG Corporate Funders Group Meeting: An Overview of the Governor’s Proposed Budget

Join us for the first Corporate Funders Group meeting for 2023. Keeping everyone’s safety in mind, the meeting will be virtual but we hope later in the year to welcome people in person.

Gov. Gavin Newsom has released his proposed budget plan for the 2023-24 fiscal year and the legislature is now taking it into consideration. We invite you to a conversation with the California Budget & Policy Center who has been studying the budget proposals and their impact on our local communities. As the state grapples with a reduction in tax revenues, the budget expenditures will have major implications for how companies do business in California as well as the impact on philanthropic areas our corporate partners support.

This is an excellent opportunity to learn where potential gaps in community support may exist because of the proposed budget and discuss with peers on how to address those gaps. The discussion will center on education, housing/homelessness, health care including behavioral health, and pandemic recovery. We encourage you to invite your colleagues to hear this comprehensive summary of the Governor’s proposal. We will also be joined by SCG’s Public Policy team to share about their work and policy agenda, and hear from you on how you would like to engage with SCG policy work.
