We demand that our elected Board of Trustees and our Chancellor uphold the College’s core mission: providing access to higher education for all. We say NO to a 1/3 cut to our City College. Our college, our choice!
The Grow our CCSF Coalition is Jobs with Justice, AFT 2121, Community Housing Partnership, San Francisco Rising Alliance, and the CCSF Student Assembly. We’ve built momentum and we need to keep going.
From West Virginia to Los Angeles to Oakland, teachers, students, parents, and communities are taking action to defend public education. San Francisco, too, must defend our beloved institution from death by a thousand cuts.

Tacos and beverages to the first 50 people there!
*OK. Originally it was scheduled as a picnic on May 23rd. But the response so far caused us to re-think it. So, instead of a picnic on a day most people won’t come, we’ll hang at El Rio.
