A significant way that CalSTRS engages with stakeholders is through CalSTRS’ biennial materiality survey. The survey is sent to our executives, members, employees, business partners and other stakeholders to collect their feedback on our most relevant business initiatives.
With these responses, CalSTRS prepares a sustainability report that outlines the years’ performance and direction of CalSTRS under each of these prioritized material topics. This strategy allows CalSTRS to focus our communications and business plans on the most critical aspects of our day to day efforts.
The 2016 materiality survey produced the following results:

Website Accesibilty Policy CalSTRS
CalSTRS is fully committed to providing accessible facilities, elements and
channels of communication to all members of the public. As part of this commitment, CalSTRS
has a policy of providing an accessible website compatible with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG 2.1) and
commercial screen reading software. All features of the website are coded to allow individuals with vision and
other impairments to understand and use the website to the same degree as someone without disabilities. We welcome
feedback and can often resolve issues in a timely manner if they arise.
If you need any special assistance or accommodations
CalSTRS has designated a compliance officer for website disability-related accommodations.
The compliance officer has received training in website accessibility and updates the site in accordance with those best
practices. Contact our accessibility officer to report an issue.
Compliance Procedures and Reports
In addition to testing with users with a wide range of disabilities and coding our website to WCAG standards,
CalSTRS regularly scans its website to ensure ongoing compliance, and makes timely
changes to any inaccessible changes, if any are found. In our ongoing commitment to transparency, we make the
last three months' reports available to the public.
