CSL Affiliation Agreement Update

The CSL Affiliation Agreement defines the relationship between CSL Home Office and Affiliated Groups. After 12 years, it’s time to update it to reflect our evolving world and shared values. We need your input to help shape CSL’s future.

Why Update the Affiliation Agreement?

The world is changing, and CSL must adapt. The new agreement will:

  • Strengthen connections
  • Clarify expectations and accountability
  • Tailor agreements for different groups and regions

This is your opportunity to contribute to CSL’s growth and evolution.

What’s Next?

Join a focus group in March to discuss:

  • What kind of culture are we building?
  • Why is affiliation valuable?
  • How do we ensure sustainability?
  • What do different groups need from their agreements?

How to Participate

Register for a focus group to share your thoughts. The sessions will be diverse and include members from around the world. Don’t miss out — your voice matters!
