ALAMEDA, Calif., May 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The First 5 Network, comprised of First 5 California, the First 5 Association of California, and the 58 local county First 5s across the state, applauds Governor Newsom's May Revision proposals centered on supporting a whole-child, whole-family framework to address the pressing needs of California's youngest children and their families. California's $97 billion surplus has provided an unprecedented opportunity to reconstruct and build a robust early childhood system for the long term.

Key Points: 
  • Critical investments in healthcare, early literacy, early intervention, and transitional kindergarten were among the most prominent in the Governor's revised budget plan.
  • However, the First 5 Network was disappointed to see that the Governor did not adopt our priority to maintain continuous eligibility for children until their 5th birthday without need of an eligibility review.
  • This could mean that thousands of California's youngest children will lose coverage for well-child visits and preventive services, including immunizations and critical developmental screenings.
  • As the First 5 Network, we continue to support the Governor's January Budget proposal to fund Home Visiting programs and early literacy investments.

STAMFORD, Conn., May 17, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- New parenthood. It's nothing you could have ever expected or predicted.

It's time to come together to tell the truth about parenting, cancel the critics, and celebrate parenting wins. That's why Tommee Tippee has launched their 'The Truth Is' campaign to encourage empathy among the parenting community and to help parents feel less alone.
