How do you define “success?” Here at CSAC, 2017 has been a very
successful year for some obvious reasons — and some that may be
less so. Perhaps the most important and hardest to quantify is
the incredible success we achieved this year while fostering
relationships with legislators, the Administration and our
stakeholders on all sides of the tough issues.
As the voice for all 58 California counties, CSAC provides a
conduit to and from the State Capitol to exchange information and
promote understanding of the issues that affect counties and the
constituents we serve. It’s one of the most important services we
provide. As CSAC’s Deputy Executive Director for Legislative
Affairs, I am very excited about the opportunity to share with
you the work CSAC is doing at our upcoming annual Legislative
Conference on May 18-19.
