The California Endowment - Home Grant Finder | Contact Us The start of the New Year marks a new beginning for The California Endowment as we move our Woodland Hills administrative office and the Los Angeles Regional Program Office to a new facility in downtown Los Angeles. The new campus will also feature the Center for Healthy Communities , designed to mobilize leaders from the public, private and nonprofit sectors to collaborate in order to improve the health of California's underserved communities. The Center will open to the public on April 6, 2006. Beginning December 22, 2005, our new main mailing address is: 1000 North Alameda Street Los Angeles, CA 90012 Our phone number remains the same: 800.449.4149. Best wishes for the holiday season, and we look forward to welcoming you to our new home. //-- New Annual Report Breaking Ground Now Online The California Endowment's 2004-05 Annual Report, Breaking Ground, reflects a year in which the foundation launched new statewide initiatives while it literally broke ground on construction of a new multipurpose facility – to house administrative offices and its Center for Healthy Communities – in downtown Los Angeles. The report also presents information concerning The Endowment’s governance, grant making and resource management for the past fiscal year in an online format. View 2004-05 annual report View 2004-05 grants list Getting California's Kids Covered There is a growing movement among California counties to get all of the state’s children enrolled in public and private health coverage programs. These Children’s Health Initiatives (CHIs) serve as a single point of entry to enrolling kids in Medi-Cal; the state-run children's health insurance program Healthy Families; and Healthy Kids , a low-cost vision, dental and health insurance product. Healthy Kids covers children who don’t qualify for publicly-funded programs and whose family income does not exceed 300 percent of the Federal Poverty Level (about $56,000 for a family of four). The California Endowment today announced $7.5 million in premium subsidy support for 17 CHIs across the state. This funding will provide health coverage for about 8,000 uninsured California kids. Learn more about The Endowment’s funding to the counties of: Los Angeles, San Bernardino and Riverside Bay Area counties of San Francisco, Alameda, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Napa and Sonoma Central Valley counties of Fresno, Tulare, San Joaquin, Yolo and Solano California’s coastal counties of Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo and Santa Cruz Learn more about the movement to get all of California’s kids covered. New Report Dignity Denied: The Price of Imprisoning Older Women in California "Dignity Denied: The Price for Imprisoning Older Women in California," a report funded in part by The California Endowment, examines the conditions of confinement for older women imprisoned in California, their health and safety concerns as well as strategies to improve their health and well-being. View press release View report New Grant Application Guide Available The California Endowment is pleased to offer a new Grant Application Guide for prospective applicants. We have made several changes in application procedures to better focus our resources to make lasting improvements in the health of Californians. In conjunction with the launch, The Endowment is also hosting a series of information sessions throughout the state. View Guide Welcome to The Center for Healthy Communities A letter from Board Chair Cynthia Ann Telles, Ph.D., and President and CEO Robert K. Ross, M.D., announces The California Endowment's exciting development in Downtown Los Angeles – a multipurpose facility that will house the foundation's Los Angeles Program Office, administrative offices and the Center for Healthy Communities. Learn More Two reports, funded by The California Endowment, show that increasing health premiums are eroding dependent coverage nationwide. While job-based dependent coverage is falling for all income levels, the sharpest drops are in low and moderate-income families. View the press release Read 'Kids at Risk' Read 'Current Strategies to Expand Dependent Health Coverage' -- Currently, there are 800,000 kids in California without health insurance. Peter Long, a senior program officer for The California Endowment, was a recent guest on KNX 1070's Michael Jackson radio show in Los Angeles and discussed ways to cover all kids in the state.

Often they turn to real estate investing , the "safe" place to invest their money. But not so fast! Sadly, the majority of real estate investors have received little useful information and/or bad real estate investment advice. They jump right in and work extremely hard, only to lose most or all of their huge investment. "Real estate investing isn't a one-size-fits-all proposition, so it's wise to lay a good foundation before laying down your cash," explains Vena Jones-Cox, also known as the "Reliable Real Estate Expert". Over the years, she has compiled this series of steps that every real estate investor should follow: Join a Real Estate Investment Association There is no book you can read, no course you can take, and no experience you can acquire on your own that can even come close to the real estate education you'll get by spending time around people who are already buying, selling, and managing properties. The successes and failures of real-life real estate investors will teach you more (and motivate you more) than even the most complete classroom education you can find. Decide what you want in regards to your real estate investing No, that doesn't simply mean "I want to buy properties." Buying properties is simply a way to achieve your actual goals: quick cash, increased cash flow, retirement income, tax advantages, etc. Setting realistic goals for your real estate business at the outset allows you to concentrate on the properties, areas, sellers, and exit strategies that are most likely to meet those goals. Decide which real estate investment strategies will get you there most efficiently There are only five basic real estate exit strategies to choose from: retail, wholesale, lease/option, sell with owner financing, and rent. Once you have decided what you want to do (refer to step 2), your choice of exit strategies will suddenly be pretty limited. For instance, if your goal is wealth building or passive income, the retail and wholesale strategies won't work for you. If you need fast cash to pay off consumer debt or build capital for long-term investments, renting properties is the wrong way to achieve this goal. Your available real estate strategies will also be limited by your education, personality, and available assets. By the time you closely examine your goals, assets, and liabilities, you should be able to decide upon a single strategy for buying and making money from real estate properties. Determine and acquire the knowledge and skills you'll need to make your real estate investment strategies work Any basic book on a particular real estate investment strategy will show you the skill set you'll need in order to make money using that strategy. You don't need to know how tenant-landlord law works or how to manage properties if you plan to retail or wholesale, but if your strategy is to rent or lease/option, these are extremely important to know. On the other hand, some skills are vital no matter which real estate investment strategy you use. These skills include the ability to determine the value of properties, find motivated sellers, negotiate with sellers, and put your offer together. Make a list of the things you'll need to learn in order to make your strategy work, then figure out how you're going to get that information. There are endless books, workshops, home-study courses, and videotapes about virtually any real estate related topic you can imagine. Once you know what information you need, finding it will be no problem. Make lots of offers, even before you're really sure you know what you're doing Vena has taught a lot of classes to lots of new real estate investors, and she's discovered something interesting: those who haven't spent some time actually practicing looking at properties, evaluating them, and making real offers have very unrealistic ideas about what's going to happen when they do. Most beginners have preconceived ideas about the objections sellers will pose to their offers that bear no actual relationship to the objections they ultimately end up raising. They have fears about not being able to find or evaluate comparable properties. They think they'll miss the repairs the properties need when in fact they are usually fairly obvious. In a nutshell, until you've actually gotten your feet wet in the real estate market, you simply don't know what you don't know. You can't make money in real estate without making real offers, and you'll never acquire the knowledge you need to become a successful real estate investor until you get the real-life experience that only comes from making offers. The more quickly you take the steps above, even if you aren't sure you know what you're doing, the faster you'll move from a wannabe to a real-life real estate investor!
