Organizing for universal health care in California

Health Care for All - California regards health care as a human right and is dedicated to ensuring that all Californians have comprehensive, reliable, and affordable health care. Universal health care is critical to the health, security, and economic well-being of our country.

HCA was founded in 1995. Since then our work has put single payer in the center of the debate about fixing California’s broken health care system. To find out about the campaigns HCA has led, read a summary of ten years of accomplishments in Organizing History.

HCA is governed by a board of directors, who are elected representatives of HCA chapters. To contact the chapter in your area, go to About Us/HCA Chapter Directory.

HCA is a member-based organization. An individual joins HCA by paying annual dues. Members typically belong to an HCA chapter that is located in their community. People are coming together to form new HCA chapters all the time. To join HCA, go to our Home Page and click Join Us.

HCA is working to pass Senate Bill 810, authored by Sen. Mark Leno. To learn about SB 810, go to Learn More/SB 810.
We are building a movement for universal single payer health care. We call it the OneCare campaign. To learn more, go to CaliforniaOneCare.org.
