CCST is a non-partisan, nonprofit organization that was established as an independent science advising body at the request of the state legislature in 1988. CCST's mission is to engage leading experts in science and technology to advise state policymakers to ensure that California policy is strengthened and informed by scientific knowledge, research, and innovation. CCST's vision for the Golden State is that California enhances its global leadership in science, technology, and innovation to guide the state, nation, and world towards a healthy economy, society, and environment.CALIFORNIA'S POLICIES ARE STRONGER WITH SCIENCE, AND CCST IS UNIQUELY QUALIFIED AS AN ORGANIZATION CREATED VIA THE LEGISLATURE TO CONVENE A STATEWIDE NETWORK OF EXPERTS ACROSS DISCIPLINES AND INSTITUTIONS. AS THIS COORDINATING BODY, CCST CAN PROVIDE IMPARTI false false 2604365 For the past 35 years, CCST's approach to partnering and facilitating dialogue across institutions and disciplines has allowed CCST to create a collective impact that exceeds what any single institution could accomplish on its own.Collaboration was especially key in 2022. By working together across an extraordinary network of partners, researchers, public servants, and philanthropists, CCST paved the way for new and creative solutions to some of California's most daunting problems. CCST made headway on two disaster resilience efforts addressing the impacts of wildfire: a policy accelerator project with the Federation of American Scientists to support the work of the Federal Wildland Fire Mitigation and Management Commission; and a joint project with Blue Forest Conservation linking public health to forest health via wildfire smoke, which is slated for release in late summer 2023.CCST's COVID-19 Steering Committee released ""California Policy Actions for Pandemic Preparation, Response, and Recovery"" in summer 2022. The White Paper presented 34 recommendations for policymakers to consider in efforts to improve California's resilience to COVID-19 and prepare for future pandemics and other disasters. In 2022 the Committee held two facilitated workshops with experts and published their proceedings: ""Reimagining a 21st Century Public Health System"X and ""Designing Operable Privacy Standards for Data Sharing during Public Health Emergencies"".In January 2022, Issues in Science and Technology published ""States as Laboratories for Science Policy Innovation"", by Amber Mace, CCST CEO; and Jun Bando, former Senior Advisor at CCST.CCST Expert Briefings, often held in partnership with State leaders of peer organizations, convene leading experts from CCST's Partner Institutions and beyond to address pressing scientific and technical questions facing California policymakers. In 2022, CCST held a series of seven briefings, focused on identifying and addressing the key issues on the California policy landscape critical to ensuring long-term disaster resilience.In the fall, CCST also partnered with the Governor's Office of Planning and Research on a series of six public roundtables for California's Fifth Climate Change Assessment. The series helped to identify how future research can incorporate equity, traditional knowledges, governance, economic impacts, and climate financing.The 2022 class of Fellows marked the 13th year of placing PhD-level scientists, engineers, and social scientists directly into legislative offices, policy committees, and more recently State Agencies and Offices of the Governor, to prepare them for public service through the S&T Policy Fellowship Program. Working in placements that included the California Governor's Office of Emergency Services, California Natural Resources Agency, Assembly Utilities and Energy Committee, Assembly Judiciary Committee, Senate Environmental Quality Committee, California Air Resources Board, and more, CCST S&T Policy Fellows made an impact across a range of policy and regulatory fields. Altogether, CCST S&T Policy Fellows have worked on over 1,300 bills, briefings, hearings, and bill analyses. There are now 144 alumni of the program, many of whom serve in positions in legislative offices and agencies.As California's future unfolds, CCST will play a leading role in harnessing science and technology to shape policies that address the disproportionate impact of natural and man-made disasters and other threats to diverse communities throughout the state. 2604365 true true false true false false false false false true true false false false true true true false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 16 0 true 52 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 15 15 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X Lisa Poon 9164920996 1017 L Street 438 Sacramento CA 95814 Amber Mace CEO 40.00 0.00 X 194528 0 22981 Sarah Brady Deputy Director 40.00 0.00 121125 0 18387 Lisa Poon Dir. of Finance 40.00 0.00 X 131083 0 2250 Brie Lindsey Dir of Science SRV 40.00 0.00 111125 0 13334 Peter Cowhey Board Chair 5.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Lisa A Rossbacher Board ViceChair 2.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Pramod Khargonekar Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bruce B Darling Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Richard C Flagan Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Charles E Harper Board Sec/Treas 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Theresa A Maldonado Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Andrew McIlroy Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Bernadette Glenn Board member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ganesh Raman Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eugene Tu Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Carol Burns Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Elizabeth Hadly Board member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Ishwar Puri Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Erika Bustamante Board Member 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 557861 56952 4 false true false 0 873708 10017333 468566 48980 11359607 0 1180801 1180801 0 0 0 4251591 4295261 -43670 -43670 -43670 0 0 0 Miscellaneous Income 900099 1651 1651 1651 12498389 1651 1137131 0 0 0 0 350840 239005 93403 18432 0 2254036 1535534 600082 118420 31877 21716 8486 1675 272073 185346 72433 14294 217082 147884 57793 11405 0 16225 7799 6687 1739 18401 8846 7583 1972 60000 28418 25064 6518 0 0 283276 136600 116403 30273 0 24703 13902 9715 1086 32151 16000 14133 2018 0 201137 150853 50284 42789 22655 19604 530 0 28250 17742 10355 153 0 0 0 12499 9394 2484 621 RELOCATION EXPENSES 30385 28385 2000 EXPENSED EQUIP/FURNITURE 29505 29505 DUES & SUBSCRIPTIONS 23099 15384 5634 2081 professional development 13590 11384 2068 138 14166 7518 5814 834 3956084 2604365 1089246 262473 734030 199382 5780051 4293864 2251000 37582 3003 33488 0 0 0 0 22362 47203 12289 12289 17958684 26815351 0 0 0 15900 370999 26765030 31810158 93383 127609 387932 93383 515541 X 9408490 6661667 17263157 24632950 26671647 31294617 26765030 31810158 8542305 -3919335 X false true X true false X 5651672 15159983 1674671 6428633 11359607 40274566 0 0 5651672 15159983 1674671 6428633 11359607 40274566 0 40274566 24722 118897 470899 1016459 1180801 2811778 0 433359 -42019 391340 43477684 0.92630 0.93980 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED false false false false false false false false true 60000 false false 60000 false false 5831141 -734454 5096687 5422642 408499 5831141 5019747 402895 5422642 1000000 3955553 64194 5019747 1000000 1000000 false false false 12289 12289 12289 LEASE LIABILITY 387932 387932 X 8579054 -3919335 -3919335 12498389 12498389 3956084 3956084 3956084 Part V, Line 4: Intended uses of the endowment fund. CCST has one donor restricted endowment for the fellows program. From time to time, the fair value of assets associated with donor-restricted endowment funds may fall below the level that the donor or the Uniform Prudent Management of Institutional Funds Act (UPMIFA) requires CCST to maintain as a fund of perpetual duration (underwater endowment). At December 31, 2022 and 2021, CCST did not have any endowments that were considered to be underwater. Part X : FIN48 Footnote The accounting standard on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes addresses the determination of whether tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under that guidance, the Organization may recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by taxing authorities based on the technical merits of the position. Examples of tax positions include the tax-exempt status of the Organization and various positions related to the potential sources of unrelated business taxable income (UBIT). The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50% likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. There were no unrecognized tax benefits identified or recorded as liabilities at December 31, 2022.
