LEADERSHIP TEAM

Board of Directors and Advisory Panel

The CCNA Board of Directors provides  leadership and oversight for the organization and is supported by the CCNA Advisory Panel that provides advice and counsel to the Board of Directors.  

The Leadership Team includes a diverse group of prominent elected officials, business professionals, lawyers, retired military officers, representatives of the faith community, leaders of community-based organizations, a RARE Parent, and government officials who work together to provide leadership, guidance and support to the CCNA.  Many of the members are also Alexandria Living Legends, lifelong residents of Alexandria and products of ACPS.  Several of these leaders grew up in disadvantaged situations but managed to “beat the odds” because of the support and opportunities available to them. It was those supports and opportunities that made all the difference in their lives. These concerned and caring citizens are committed to providing the same kinds of support and opportunities to the youth and citizens in and around the city of Alexandria.
