InfoJozef Thomas Essavi, a resident of San Fernando Valley for 20 years, is married to Nina and is blessed with three wonderful children.

In 2008, Jozef was nominated by County Supervisor Mike Antonovich and was unanimously accepted by LA County Board of Supervisors as a Los Angeles County Commissioner. He currently serves on the Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs Commission.

Jozef was elected to the Winnetka Neighborhood Council in 2005 and re-elected in 2007 and serves as Vice-Chair of Winnetka’s Zoning and Land Use Committee and also is active with numerous non-profits and community organizations. He served as Winnetka Senator to Los Angeles Congress of Neighborhood Councils and as Chair of Public Safety Committee.

Jozef, a product of Los Angeles Valley College, was elected and re-elected as the ASB Union Treasurer in the 90's and was unanimously nominated from LAVC to become LACCD Student Trustee. He was able to prioritize budget funds to keep student learning center open even after all the funds had been exhausted by previous management. Jozef knows the inner workings of LACCD, its flaws and positive aspects and has worked with faculty, staff and administrators in a fair and balanced fashion.

He went on to receive his BA from UCR and MA from Cal State Northridge. In addition to all of his other commitments, he is a small business owner and has seen first hand the enormous value of public education in his own life. He has a passion to see everyone succeed and sees that success as a great community achievement. He considers some of Community College Professors as his top role models in life.

He is committed to the district's taxpayers and Proposition 13 and to accountability and responsibility. He is committed to full student access to education, vocational as well as academic training and education, lower unit fees, lower text book costs, and expanded private-public partnerships and scholarship programs. He is committed to teacher tenure rather than shuttling overworked instructors between campuses on our congested freeways. He is committed to giving independence to each of the nine campuses and their administrators.

Jozef Thomas Essavi will be “a trustee for all of us”.
