Mark Baldassare, who has led the Public Policy Institute of California for the last 15 years as President and CEO, announced he is stepping down at the end of the year. Calpeek would like to thank Baldassare and the PPIC for providing Californians with informative, helpful, and timely information for nearly three decades. As the rational world tries to fight disinformation, we applaud PPIC’s approach “We believe in the power of good information to build a brighter future.” Best of luck to Mark in his future endeavors.
