Answer
CASA tries to figure out what is bad about the student experience, what the federal government can do to improve it, and try to convince the federal government to take action.
Fees paid by CASA member associations (usually about $3-$4 per student) support the work we do, including
- Conducting research on student problems
- Understanding federal government programs and how they can be improved
- Communicating to the public to build supports for solutions to student problems
- Talk to decisionmakers in the federal government to get them to implement solutions
