Summary
Stockton just became the first California city to launch the HOPE Trust Account pilot, giving foster kids savings accounts for their future. It’s aimed at kids aging out of the foster system with little financial cushion. If you care about local kids getting a fair shot, this is a concrete win to watch.

Impact analysis
The pilot puts public or partner funding into savings accounts for participating foster youth, so the direct cost is limited rather than a broad citywide expense.
Foster kids in Stockton—especially those about to age out—get a savings cushion they wouldn’t otherwise have.
