Our Mission

Awarding scholarships and furthering the professional practice of planning in California

Mission Statement

The California Planning Foundation (CPF), established in 1970 as a nonprofit organization, is committed to advancing the professional practice of planning in California. We achieve this by raising funds to provide scholarship support to students enrolled in academic programs in California who are preparing for careers in the planning profession and by promoting equal opportunity and social equity. Through these efforts, CPF strives to foster a diverse and inclusive future for the planning field across California.
