Advocacy

Legislative Services Overview

COSA's Policy and Advocacy Team represents Oregon school leaders at the state and federal level  Our goals are to: 

  • Collaborate with COSA members and policy makers to pass policies and advocate for funding priorities that advance our mission of helping education leaders ensure student success;
  • Support COSA members in participating in the policymaking process at the state and federal level; and
  • Connect policymakers to COSA members and relevant data, information, and research that is critical to informing our policy and funding needs at the federal, state, and local level.  

COSA's Policy and Advocacy Team

COSA Leadership—including the COSA Board; the COSA Equity Board; the executive committees of OASE, OACOA, OASSA and OESPA; and COSA's executive team—provides direction to the COSA legislative team. The opinions, suggestions and questions of COSA members are always welcome. Contact information for your COSA legislative team:
