Who is CLEL Currently?

In 2023 the CLEL Steering Committee surveyed the current membership to learn more about who our members are and how we can best serve them. The survey results gave the Steering Committee a new perspective and sparked several new initiatives.

In the future we plan to carry out a member survey every three years to inform our practice.

“Your annual conferences are great and so informative! I look forward to them every year.”
