"CSSA provides a collective voice for CSU students to the state government, the California State University system, and other state boards and commissions. Our representatives work to carry out the associations mission by advocating to elected/appointed officials and engaging their peers on important issues. Each year, CSSA identifies a Policy Agenda, which outlines the organizations primary priorities for federal, state, and university issues. Our policy agenda is driven by the three core principles of the associations mission: access, affordability, and quality."
