California Creates Council on Men and Boys; NCFM Dismisses Lawsuit
Press release here. Excerpt:
'Governor Gavin Newsom announced the creation of the California Council on Men and Boys, a landmark step toward gender equity in state policy. The council addresses long standing disparities and follows years of advocacy and legal action by the National Coalition For Men (NCFM) and represents a significant shift in how California approaches the well-being of all its residents.
...
For decades, the California Commission on the Status of Women and Girls (CCSWG) has received robust support, with funding exceeding $25 million in recent years. The commission has played a vital role in advancing issues related to economic and educational equity, healthcare access, and violence prevention for women and girls, serving millions of Californians. Until now, however, there has been no equivalent body dedicated to addressing the unique challenges faced by men and boys.'
