STATE CCC UPDATE State CCC Update Terry Donaldson, Chair of the State Client Consultative Committee, brings you this latest update. Another year has come and gone as quickly as it arrived for the State CCC and much has been accomplished. This year saw the CCC transition from a reactive group dealing with service issues, to what will next year be a series of proactive focus groups examining emerging issues affecting CPL and its customers. Whether you choose to engage with us through our 1800 number, our website, social media, or through one-on-one conversations with the service staff you know and trust, we want to hear from you. This progress aligns with the overall CPL vision of us becoming a service provider that doesn’t just provide generic services, but tailored customer solutions. Your feedback is crucial to making sure we can continuously improve. As you will see in this edition, CPL is releasing their client survey. Your wants and needs, comments and constructive criticism are all equally important in CPL becoming and remaining your service provider of choice. Finally as Chair of the State CCC I would like to wholeheartedly thank Angela Tillmanns for her stewardship of CPL throughout her time as CEO. Her commitment to quality client services was only matched by her steadfast drive to ensure people with a disability were and are able to participate in the life of the community as full citizens no matter what their ability. For this we as the CPL family will be forever grateful.
