We hope that the CAN community can help you grow as a leader, individual, and part of a community of practice in Central Appalachia.

Get Involved

The most common way to enter the “CAN-iverse” is through participating in a Working Group meeting or attending a CAN event. Each of CAN’s eight Working Groups meet monthly and are led by two Co-chairs and a coordinator.
