Tripepi Smith has reaffirmed its commitment to supporting California special districts by continuing its Silver-level Business Affiliate Membership of the California Special Districts Association (CSDA) for 2026. This partnership reflects the firm’s ongoing dedication to strengthening special districts and the essential services they provide to communities across California.
CSDA is a statewide association representing more than 1,000 special districts that provide essential public services to millions of Californians, including water, fire protection, parks and recreation, sanitation and healthcare. The association equips special district leaders with the tools, resources and training to serve their communities effectively.
“CSDA plays a vital role in empowering special districts and the leaders who keep critical services running throughout California,” said CSDA President Lorenzo Rios. “Tripepi Smith has been a trusted partner to public agencies for years, and we value their continued support of CSDA and our mission to strengthen local governance.”
As a Silver-level sponsor, Tripepi Smith supports CSDA’s statewide programming, conferences and leadership initiatives while maintaining strong relationships with special district professionals. The firm’s team regularly participates in CSDA events, sharing best practices in strategic communications and community engagement.
“Special districts are on the front lines of delivering essential services, often with limited resources and growing public expectations. Tripepi Smith’s ability to deliver a complete suite of communications capabilities with one contract provides a superpower for small government agencies,” said Tripepi Smith President Ryder Todd Smith. “CSDA provides critical leadership and advocacy for these agencies, and we are proud to support an organization that aligns so closely with our mission to help local governments communicate more effectively and serve their communities with transparency and trust.”
Through its continued partnership with CSDA, Tripepi Smith reinforces its role as a dedicated partner to California’s special districts and remains focused supporting the professionals who keep communities informed, connected and resilient.
