Community Advisory Committee (CAC)

 

The South Orange County Special Education Local Plan Area (SOC SELPA) CAC seeks to join together parents, educators, lawmakers, service providers and other community members who want to make a difference in the education of all students. The CAC is here to inform and support with the goal of improving and protecting the education of our children.

We are always looking for new CAC members and volunteers.  If you are interested in becoming a voting member or volunteer, please fill out our CAC Participation Application Form.

Please view our CAC meeting schedule (Calendario de reuniones), and join us for our next meeting.

“Childhood is not a race to see how quickly a child can read, write and count.  It is a small window of time to learn and develop at the pace that is right for each individual child.”

– Magda Gerber

Triumph Awards

It is time for our annual SOC CAC/SELPA Triumph awards!  Is there someone in your circle that is doing some amazing things for the Special Education community?  Is there a student that shines?  Maybe a parent, teacher, Instructional Aide or administrator who has gone the extra mile?  We want to celebrate these accomplishments at our May 15th, 2024 CAC Meeting in the Laguna Hills High School MPR.  We will be celebrating our wonderful community at 6:30 pm (after the CAC meeting and the Q&A session).  If you would like to nominate someone, please go to our Triumph Awards Google Form.  We look forward to seeing you there.
