The Chamber Action Alliance (CAA) is the state-wide grassroots advocacy coalition of Ohio chambers of commerce and business advocates coordinated by the Ohio Chamber of Commerce. Together, the CAA identifies statewide policy issues facing the business community, educates and empowers alliance members to take action. Advocacy has two main components: education and activation.
We primarily emphasize education through newsletters, presentations, conference calls, and more to make sure that CAA members are up-to-date and have effective, appealing messages to share with their communities.
