Each year CCPA comes together to discuss relevant issues in higher education and student services. This is where professionals from around the state of California come together to better the profession, our personal and professional development, and expand our networks.

Each year the the CCPA Spring Institute Planning Committee selects a location (alternating each year from North, Central, and Southern California) to host a diverse and thoughtful space to share ideas and discover solutions and opportunity within the California’s public and private higher education systems.

ACPA will direct resources, energy, and time toward addressing racial justice in student affairs and higher education around the world. Our lens is intersectional, intentional, and directed. The focus is on reducing the oppression of communities of color at the intersections of their identities, knowing that all oppressions are linked and that the work is ongoing. Our goal is to provide leading research and scholarship; tools for personal, professional, and career development; and innovative praxis opportunities for members that will actively inform and reshape higher education. We move toward this goal knowing that the roles and daily tasks of our jobs are important to the functioning of colleges and universities. We also know that racial justice and the tasks of our jobs do not sit as dichotomous poles. Racial justice is at our core; it underlies the work we each must do every day, in every way we can.
