Local Advisory Board
Philadelphia LISC is governed by a Local Advisory Board (LAB), somewhat
similar to a Board of
Directors, composed of leaders from local business, banking, public and
non-profit communities.
The LAB's quarterly meetings are supplemented by smaller committee meetings that focus on critical areas such as CDC project reviews, communications and fundraising.
