The California Department of Managed Health Care helps consumers resolve problems with their health maintenance organizations and ensure a more stable managed health care system. The department's HMO Help Center assists consumers with health care issues. Since the department's inception in 2000, the Help Center has assisted approximately 700,000 Californians to resolve their HMO problems. The department's efforts for a healthier managed health care system include a variety of steps, such as ensuring HMO accountability through prevention and quality of care laws, develop and launch public education and awareness efforts, provide an annual report card on quality of care of the state's HMOs, ensure fiscal accountability for consumer premium dollars and co-payments throughout the HMO system and work to bring managed health care back to its roots of better preventive care. The California Department of Managed Health Care is headquartered in Sacramento, Calif.

The California Council of Land Trusts is dedicated to conserving the state's extraordinary land and water resources through a strong network of land trusts, uniting urban and rural communities with one cohesive voice. Their members protect and steward some of California's most vital conservation lands and resources. Through advocacy, education, and funding, the CCLT works towards a future where all California residents share a common conservation ethic and have access to clean water, healthy food, parks, and natural lands. They actively support Governor Newsom's 30x30 initiative and collaborate with local tribes for traditional stewardship of conserved lands.Generated from the website
