The California Association of Student Councils (CASC) is a nonprofit organization focused on developing youth leadership within the primary and secondary education sector. Founded in 1947 through collaboration with the California Department of Education and the California Association of School Administrators, CASC operates under a governance structure that includes a fifteen-member Board of Directors and a twenty-four member State Council, both comprising adults and high school students who lead in-year programs. Based in Oakland, California, CASC emphasizes empowering students to initiate change by fostering leadership skills that can ripple through their communities. The organization serves high school students and schools by providing student-led programs that aim to influence peers and school culture, positioning itself as a practitioner-driven leadership body within California's education landscape. A recent development noted in regional coverage is the appointment of a new CASC president for Region 6, reflecting ongoing leadership evolution within the organization.
