CCSS Local Council Map

CCSS Committees

Much of the work and outreach of CCSS occurs through the committees. All committees meet a minimum of twice per year; the day before the first fall Board of Directors, and at the Annual CCSS Conference. Individual committees meet to conduct business as needed during the rest of the year. All CCSS members are eligible to serve on a committee. Much of the committee business is conducted through email, so it very important to have a working email account. To become a committee member, review the purpose of each committee, as it is described below, and join it by contacting the committee chair listed on the chart or by contacting the CCSS office at (530) 809-0290 or
