The CLA provides a networking function among international/heritage language organizations across Canada.

Our Speak Up for Languages campaign across Canada...

The CLA wants to develop a cross-country communications/action strategy that encourages grass roots input on issues related to international/heritage languages education.

 

We envision groups across Canada that work in a supportive environment to achieve real change. CLA and its Affiliates will act as centres of information and create a process where individuals and organizations across the country can get together on a regular basis to: discuss issues of concern; possible solutions; raise awareness of decision-makers; and, promote the benefits of language education to the wider population.
