Welcome to the California State Parks Foundation's Take Action Center. Whether you're new to advocacy or a veteran of policy battles, take advantage of these tools and join us as we work to protect and improve parks throughout the state.

Major Threats to YOUR State Parks:
	Anza Borrego Desert State Park San Diego Gas & Electric is proposing to build a new 500 kV electricity transmission line in Imperial and San Diego Counties, including 23 miles through Anza-Borrego Desert State Park. Read more about this threat.

	San Onofre State Beach Home to the world famous trestles surf beach, and the 5th most visited state park in California, San Onfre State Beach is one of the South Coast's gems. See how we are fighting to keep a private toll road from being built through this park.

Advocacy Efforts:
	Save Our State Parks Campaign In response to the Governor's January 10 proposal to close 48 state parks and reduce lifeguard staffing on 16 state beaches, the Foundation quickly developed a statewide campaign to generate attention about the proposal and mobilize Californians to oppose the draconian measure. See how you can help keep State Parks front and center in our legislator's minds when they are crafting California's budget.

	Park Advocacy Day Hundreds of state park supporters traveled to the State Capitol to advocate for the protection and support of California's 278 state parks, particularly in light of the proposal to close 48 state parks and reduce lifeguard staffing on 16 state beaches. Read more and see pictures from the day here.

	Other Park Issues See legislation that CSPF is tracking along with accomplishments and even more State Park Threats.
