The CA Partnership welcomes grassroots organizations committed to building an anti-poverty movement in California to its membership. We also welcome as non-voting members allied organizations and individuals with the same goals.
The only prerequisites for membership are that your organization is committed to these goals, is willing to be listed as a member organization, and agrees to participate in our activities according to your abilities (e.g. fax blasts, call-in days, actions, trips to Sacramento, etc). We expect to implement a sliding scale dues structure in 2005.
