About CCLA
CCLA is an inclusive, vibrant community driving business as a force for good by connecting our city’s entrepreneurs, business leaders and professionals through content and experiences in Los Angeles.  The CCLA Board is a working board, providing mission-based leadership, strategic governance, and executing day-to-day operations.
