What is the purpose/mission of the program?

Various organizations and communities are challenged on a daily basis—trying to obtain the resources they need to help people and further their cause. As we know, the unfortunate are also challenged—they often lead a life that not many can relate to and it's a challenge for them to receive the emotional, physical and financial help they need to get through the day.

To help those in need tackle their every day challenges, the Association of Legal Administrators (ALA) created its Community Challenge Weekend (CCW) program in 1999 where it encourages ALA chapters, its members, firms, vendors, relatives and friends to come together to contribute time, energy and resources toward improving their own communities. Join us in 2010 on October 8-10 and touch the lives of people in your area!
