Campus Advocacy Coordinators
Campus Advocacy Coordinators (CACs) are the liaisons designated by each college to support and lead legislative advocacy efforts on their individual college campuses. CACs are designated by the college president, and work directly with OCCA to make sure advocacy messages are consistent statewide. They recruit students, faculty, staff, board members, and community/industry stakeholders to advocate on behalf of community colleges, testify in front of the legislator or in written testimony, contact legislators and more. Please see below for the CACs for each community college. If you have general questions about CACs, please contact casey@occa17.com.
