Message from the Chair – Tough Times Don’t Last – Tough People Do!

As with every aspect of American life, COVID-19 has changed the game for the education community, including the school facilities and maintenance sector.  California schools are confronted with questions on procedures and processes about cleaning and disinfecting to ensure learning environments are clean, safe and healthy. The opportunities and challenges presented by the necessity of distance learning, providing food to under-served students who might not otherwise have access to meals, and significant State funding challenges on the horizon.  CASH was born in conflict, and we are meeting these challenges as we always do through education and advocacy.
