As a consortium, our members include professional organizations that vary in age, size, and reach. While some of these organizations are local chapters of national associations, there are several that are unique to Northeast Ohio. What they all share is a mission to build the African American community. The current member organizations’ combined mailing lists reach over 30,000.

If you are a leader of a black professional organization in greater Cleveland and would like to extend to your members the benefits of CAAO, please contact the office at (216) 432-9481 or email us at caao_cleveland@yahoo.com.
