New URL and website coming soon

We're proud to announce that we'll be switching to a new address on the web.

Over the next few weeks, we'll be moving to ACSS.org. This won't have any impact on how you use our site (unless you enter the address manually, in which case you have fewer letters to type) and the transition should happen seamlessly.

Our email addresses will also change to @ACSS.org, so please update your address books and spam/junk filters as necessary.

Furthermore, this website will be undergoing a redesign in the coming months in order to improve your browsing experience.

We've carefully analyzed what you want when you visit us and we're going to make sure you get the information you need faster. This site will also be optimized to work just as well on your smartphone or tablet as it does on your pc.

Want ACSS to host a lunch at your worksite?


ACSS Membership Coordinator Diane Wolff chats with a potential member at 2014's Cal Tech Picnic.

Cal Tech's annual picnic brought in roughly 800 state employees for a day of BBQ, raffles, and special thanks from elected officials.

Dozens of state supervisors, managers, and confidential employees stopped by ACSS' booth to learn more about their rights and the benefits of belonging to ACSS.

Most were pleasantly suprised to learn that our dues top out at just $36/month and that rather than relying on stewards, we provide professional legal representation for all members.

If you're interested in ACSS hosting a similar event at your worksite, call us toll free at (800) 624-2137 or send an email to acss@calcsea.org
