CCI Leadership

CCI's Steering Committee of community members defines the Initiative, then guides, executes and delivers on its goals. The Committee is a rich source of ideas and direction for CCI. Even after many years, members continue to be engaged and enthusiastic about the work of the program, and many regard their service as educational, stimulating and productive, even taking tools and discussions back to their own organizations.
