Californians for Population Stabilization (CAPS) is a non-profit organization founded in 1986 in California which works to "preserve California's future through the stabilization of our state's human population". CAPS was the former Californian branch of the Zero Population Growth (ZPG) organization.[2]
Its aim is to help advance state policies and programs designed to stabilize the population at a level which they feel "will preserve a good quality of life for all Californians".[3] It asserts that the current growth of population is "unsustainable" and contributes to a growing strain on the environment and infrastructure.[4]
