California’s special districts are invited to participate in the first-ever “National Special Districts Action Week” during the second week of August. The National Special Districts Coalition (NSDC), of which CSDA is a founding member, will coordinate this weeklong event to facilitate special districts’ engagement with federal lawmakers during the Congressional recess.
NSDC will equip special districts with advocacy resources and aid with coordination of meetings with Congressional offices during the week of August 8-12. The Coalition’s objective is to provide members with an opportunity to directly engage with their federal representatives to raise awareness of the essential services special districts provide to their constituents, convey understanding about the differences between special districts and city/county counterparts, and share insight on specific federal concerns districts may face locally.

Special districts interested in participating in National Special Districts Action Week are strongly encouraged to register with NSDC to receive advocacy materials, resources, and a legislative briefing on key federal issues.
NSDC is the only national organization representing and advocating for all special districts at the federal level. The Coalition advocates for special districts’ equitable access to critical programs available to local governments. Uniting special districts and stakeholders as one voice, NSDC fosters strong national collaboration to strengthen and advance essential community service enhancing American communities’ quality of life.
