Our Fall and Spring Conferences, monthly lunch n learns and other events are valuable opportunities to network with providers and business associates from around the state. Referrals
When our providers need a particular service, they turn to CALA members first through our directory listings on our website and referrals from other CALA providers. The benefits of CALA membership are vast. Being a member of CALA has helped promote our business with other professionals as well as the general public. One valuable benefit is networking with other Assisted Living providers and local government agencies. We are a group of concerned associates who are able to have a voice in maintaining best practices in our industry. For a nominal annual investment, our CALA membership is truly priceless.
