Striving to Set the Standard for Accountability and Transparency
The California Endowment is governed by an 17-member Board of Directors from California’s leading nonprofits, health organizations, educational institutions, businesses and industries. The Board of Directors sets the goals and policies relating to The Endowment’s mission of expanding access to affordable, quality health care for underserved individuals and communities, and to promote fundamental improvements in the health status of Californians.
The entire Board and/or its various subset committees, set policies relating to operational spending and grant making, management, investment and governance. The Directors also worked with the foundation’s staff to craft the organization’s code of ethics and managed the internal/external audit processes – which help to ensure a greater transparency and accountability of The Endowment’s work within California’s communities.
