Special Districts are created and funded by a community’s residents to provide new or enhanced local services and infrastructure. Residents govern Special Districts through locally elected or appointed board members. California Special Districts are passionate about providing high-quality services and resources in the most efficient and effective manner.

The California Special District Association (CSDA) is the voice for Special Districts. They provide districts with the resources necessary to best serve their communities. CSDA offers education and training, legal advice, legislative advocacy, capital improvement funding, and current information that is crucial to special district management and operational effectiveness.
