Our Community

Welcome

UC ANR is more than a workplace—it's a community of people committed to improving lives across California. Here you'll find resources, groups, and programs that support connection, belonging, and professional growth.
 

Our Culture

We have many opportunities for staff to have their voices heard and support one another. Explore some of them below:

 

Staff Assembly

All UC ANR staff employees are members of the UC ANR Staff Assembly. Elected leaders give staff a collective voice on policies, processes, and programs—and support career training and professional development.
