Gov. Gavin Newsom previously signed into law a strong ombudsperson for foster youth, but CA needs to do the same for incarcerated youth. This is why we urge Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom your signature on #AB505! NCLR – National Center for Lesbian Rights Human Rights Watch California Youth Connection (CYC) Anti-Recidivism Coalition (ARC) The National Center for Youth Law Young Women's Freedom Center

On June 30th, all CA state youth prisons were closed forever. But youth can still be locked up in 58 counties. AB 505 will make sure that, if something goes wrong in local lockups, youth can speak to the Youth Ombudsperson & get help right away. #PassAB505 Gavin Newsom


CA closed its youth prisons & the state is paying counties over $200,000,000 a year to care for youth. #AB505 will ensure counties create research-based & health-focused plans. Without #AB505, there's no fiscal accountability for Gavin Newsom's vision of youth justice.

Justice, equality, and well-being aren't just words; they're the pillars on which we hope to build our youth's future. Please support #AB505 and make California a beacon for transformative youth justice! 🌟 Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom #SignAB505

A Youth Ombudsperson can inspect CA youth justice facilities, access records, and speak directly to youth about their rights. #AB505 will strengthen OYCR ‘s oversight & give needed access to an Ombudsperson who can safeguard the rights of youth. Gavin Newsom, please sign #AB505!

#AB505 would require twice-a-year input from mental health, social services, & education experts in county youth justice planning. Chief Probation Officers of California | CPOC calls that "unnecessary bureaucratic hurdles.”🤔🤯😂 Let's protect our youth & their rights! ✊ Gavin Newsom, please sign #AB505!

Let's make sure all youth have the right to turn to an adult for help. Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom, please sign #AB505!


Just out! #AB505 signed into law! California's youth are our future leaders & innovators. #AB505 safeguards their rights and well-being, and promotes a just society. Thank you, #CaLeg, Asm Phil Ting, & Governor Gavin Newsom Gavin Newsom for ensuring ALL youth get the chance to thrive. 💫
