CLA's Executive Director, Lana Kleiman, receives Trident United Way's Nonprofit Leader of the Year Award!
This award is bestowed upon an active member of a local nonprofit who knows how to stretch a small budget, work efficiently with a small staff, and ensure the organization’s programs are achieving target results. These attributes permeate CLA's culture and are reflected in each and every decision that Lana makes.
We are grateful to have such an incredible leader!
