Legislative & Public Affairs
Maintaining a robust advocacy program is a top priority for LACCD, in order to ensure that the voices of both its colleges and students are effectively heard at the local, state, and national levels. As the country's largest community college district, LACCD's advocacy program is intently focused on bringing about changes across a host of critical policy areas and securing the resources needed to fulfill the overall mission of all District campuses. Every year, the District's experienced team of advocates represent LACCD at local government hearings, before the State Legislature and Executive Branch, and at Congressional hearings and the White House.
