We are looking to form and build the CLEI’s Human Empowerment and Learning Potential (HELP) Affinity Group (HELP-AG), in order to seek those among us who can "catch the vision" of what can be possible. Affinity Groups spark new collaborations, joint learning, and collective action, thereby sharpening the innovative edge we must develop as we tackle our community’s challenges. The HELP-AG subgroups will be comprised of seriously interested, like-minded, committed and available volunteers, business professionals, parents/guardians, media relations, criminal justice and law enforcement officials, social welfare and medical professionals, educators, philanthropists, etc., who are willing to provide us the necessary tools, talents, wisdom, expertise, materials/supplies, etc. necessary to build the CLEI one component at a time.

The CLEI Task Force needs assistance with:

• Nonprofit business organizational management
• Startup operational processes

• Developing a capital campaign for operational management
• Securing real estate location(s)
• Human resources management formation and personnel recruitment
• And much more
