IHPS California: Working to achieve health care coverage for all California families through policy and program innovation, technical assistance, applied research and best practice dissemination.

	Under a multi-year grant from The David and Lucile Packard Foundation, IHPS California directs the Child and Family Coverage Technical Assistance Center (CFCTAC) to provide policy expertise and strategic assistance to local and regional coalitions in the design and implementation of innovative approaches to expand access to health care for children and families.

IHPS California also participates in a multi-organization consortium of technical assistance providers to counties and regions engaged in Children’s Health Initiatives (CHIs). Funded by a grant from The California Endowment’s Children’s Coverage Program, the Technical Assistance Consortium provides coordinated technical assistance to counties and regions, with a focus on advancing solutions that support statewide health coverage for all children.
