Gold, big trees, fertile farmland, plentiful orchards, bountiful rivers-- the rich resources of California can be found in CADA Area A. Even greater than these riches are the resources of youth in our area. We have amazing schools filled with fantastic students… and in each school there is the opportunity to create a positive culture and climate. The Activity Directors and Leadership teachers in Northern California are blessed with the prospect of creating great change in each school for every student. Along with Leadership Development Days, informal gatherings, and online support, CADA provides four leadership conferences during the year that are listed below.
Please feel free to contact Melissa Edsall, Jill Mortensen, or myself, John Lucero, for any questions that you might have concerning leadership, activities or the CADA organization. Also, below you will find a list of the Area A Council members. They can also provide needed support.
Good luck with your local program. Please feel free to share your successes and challenges with us.
