Welcome to the CCB Happenings for February 23, 2024.

Bylaws Committee

Any needed changes to our CCB Bylaws will be considered by the membership at our upcoming state convention in April. Proposed amendments should be submitted to the bylaws committee by March 1st. Please contact committee chair Steve Bauer at steve.bauer@ccbnet.org or call (310) 558-4500

From Jeff Thom, Resolutions Co-chair

Our advocacy agenda is largely determined by you, the membership, through resolutions adopted at our annual convention. Our bylaws require that resolutions be submitted to the Committee 30 days prior to start of the convention. This year, that date falls on March 3, since the convention starts on April 3. You may submit resolutions to anyone on the committee, including myself at jsthom@comcast.net or co-chair Sarah Harris at crazyblindlady@gmail.com
Or (559) 816-1507
