Next 10 created an innovative online game called the “California Budget Challenge” which provides an annual examination of the State’s most pressing budget policy choices and challenges users to set priorities for the next five years. Users create a budget that reflects their values and vision for California’s future.  Since its launch in 2005, more than 50,000 Californians have taken the “Challenge.”  Next 10 works with the League of Women Voters, the state Parent-Teachers Association, New America Media, California libraries and other education and civic groups to take the Challenge on the road to diverse audiences across the state. In addition, Next 10 produced printed materials on the California budget in five different languages, which are used in conjunction with the Challenge as part of our statewide education effort.
