The alliance represents 8 colleges and 10 student associations with over 78,000 student members. Founded in 1975 as the Ontario Community College Student Parliamentary Association (OCCSPA), the College Student Alliance (CSA) is an advocacy and student leadership organization which serves Ontario's college students. CSA's main competencies are advocacy related on behalf of its membership on all issues relating to college education including tuition, accessibility, quality and transferability. Independent of any political or organizational affiliations the CSA is dedicated to championing the needs of Ontario postsecondary students from the students' perspective.[1] Advocacy SuccessesOver CSA's 40-year history, the staff and board have worked hard to ensure the college student voice is heard at Queen's Park. The following are some of CSA's advocacy successes over the years.
Programs & Service1. FUNDING TOOLS | A one-stop-shop funding website; with over 500 scholarships, bursaries and grants, and a budget calculator. 2. POINT BANK | CSA's Point Bank program was designed to give back to student associations to better student life for individuals on their campuses. Through promotion of CSA, student associations gain 'points' which turn into dollars. In 2015/16, we distributed over $14,000 to fund food banks on-campus. 3.THE YELLOW UMBRELLA PROJECT | The Yellow Umbrella Project is an annual mental health awareness campaign developed by CSA. Student associations across Ontario participate in the campaign in order to achieve its overall mission: to stop the stigma surrounding mental health and mental illness, and help students recognize the resources available to them on-campus and within their community. The Yellow Umbrella Project coincides with Mental Illness Awareness Week in order to bridge the gap between communities and campuses. CSA provided student associations with marketing material, suggested social media posts and a how-to guide for implementation. 4. STUDENT LEADERSHIP SCHOLARSHIP | CSA's Student Leadership Scholarship is awarded to 12 outstanding student leaders from Ontario colleges who demonstrate exceptional work on campus and in their community. The scholarship is awarded to individuals with proven leadership qualities. Winners are involved within their college community, demonstrating leadership efforts, volunteerism and participation in organizations focused on helping others. CSA's Leadership Scholarship is presented annually by CSA's Board of Directors.
