The Basics of CA’s Board of Directors

The CA Board of Directors is guided by the same mission as CA: to enhance quality of life in Columbia. Click here to learn more about the organization and its mission.

The Board consists of a group of 10 residents elected by their respective villages with CA’s President/CEO serving as a non-voting member. Guided by a strategic plan, the Board is charged with providing high level strategic direction to the organization’s leaders. Members should be committed to the betterment of the organization, connected to their community and driven by service.
