CABJ TASK FORCES

CABJ Task Forces

Seven (7) subgroups have been created within the collective CABJ organization which are designed to address the specific needs of our diverse membership. Each Task Force will provide members with targeted networking and information sharing that will help members succeed in their respective area of expertise.

CABJ will hold break-out sessions for the task forces at our General Membership Meetings. Each month, task force members will be able to develop and build their knowledge, skills and contacts through the use of networking sessions, information sharing, resource materials, referral leads, mini-workshops, expert guest speakers, special projects, contests, competitions and various how-to topics which will support members in their individual career goals and endeavors.
