For years, members attending our National Conference have told us that when they discovered CCDA it was like coming home. We hear it all the time: “I feel like I’ve found my people.” And most of our practitioners want that connection to last all year long in their own communities—to have the opportunity to be inspired, trained and connected alongside fellow CCDA practitioners from across town or across the street. And we’ve been listening.
Based on your feedback and input, CCDA’s national office wants to invite—and encourage—you to gather with other like-minded CCDA members and start an official CCDA Local Network in your community or city. Our Local Network approach envisions network members enjoying regular fellowship together, collaborating to facilitate training in the 8 Key Components, and cultivating a sense of community among local CCDA members, to name just a few network benefits.
To learn more about starting a network, or if you’ve already established a network and want to discover how to make it an officially-supported CCDA entity, please download our new Local Network Handbook.
