Kids and Schools

Helping Families Raise Healthy Kids

As a PhD in child psychology, a former teacher and member of the San Francisco Board of Education, Leland Yee has spent his professional career focused on kids and schools. In Sacramento, has earned a 100% rating from the Children's Advocacy Institute and been instrumental in passing key education reforms and improvements.

And while a good education is essential to our kids' wellbeing and future success, Leland Yee knows that children need more than good schools to help them grow. That's why Yee has worked to expand access to mental health services for kids, strengthened laws to keep tobacco out of the hands of minors, banned the sale of ultra-violent videogames to children, and fought to protect children exploited by sex traffickers.
