Our Mission
Is a youth led organization of Camden, NJ public school students from grades 9th-12th. CSU was established in 2013-14 by a group of courageous students that was fed up with the way that their voice were overlooked in the process for better education for the Camden City School District. The students meet monthly with the Camden Parent Union to seek advice and to organize for issues that they deem as important. They also travel nationally and provide the students voice in many conferences and protest. The CSU single handedly have been the heroes for public education in Camden, NJ.
