Translating community solutions into equitable policy and lasting change.

What We Do

We are a statewide policy advocacy organization advancing health equity for California’s Latinx community—40% of California’s 40 million residents. Our powerful team members bring their personal lived experiences and professional technical expertise through our programming, policy development, and strategic communications. In collaboration with our trusted partners, we translate community solutions into equitable policy and lasting systemic change.

Community Change

At LCHC, we build local capacity and train community leaders to engage with policy and systems decision-makers. Our programs engage Latinx leaders and Latinx-serving organizations to cultivate community participation in decision-making processes so systems meet the unique needs of the State’s largest racial/ethnic community.

Policy Change

LCHC is the leading statewide policy organization with a specific emphasis on Latinx health. Through legislative and administrative advocacy, LCHC transforms policy systems to advance Latinx health justice. We partner with Latinx Health Equity champions in the CA Assembly, Senate and Administration to achieve bold, innovative policy strategies to close the gap on racial/ethnic health disparities for the State’s Latinx community and achieve health equity for all Californians.

About this year’s Summit:

Our annual Latine and Indigenous Health Policy Summit is the only conference in California explicitly focusing on exploring policy solutions to address the complex health disparities that Latine Californians face. The Summit serves as an opportunity to celebrate our history and to bring together hundreds of statewide and local public health leaders, government, and philanthropy partners and activates our network consisting of 20,000+ Latinx health stakeholders. We convene dynamic conversations with leaders from across California who are eager to advance systemic and community-centered solutions to bring about a healthier, more equitable, and sustainable future for ALL.
