The Business Civic Leadership Center (BCLC) is a leading voice and resource for the business community dedicated to advancing the positive impact of business on society.

BCLC helps companies tackle the toughest issues affecting society today – including health and wellness, economic development, sustainability, and disaster resiliency and recovery. Through its affiliation with the US Chamber, BCLC is connected to businesses, federations, and Chambers of Commerce in the United States and around the world. BCLC serves as a catalyst in building stronger partnerships with key government, NGO, societal and other business leaders across the country and the world. BCLC tells the story of the how business is making a difference in society through communications vehicles that reach a network of more than a quarter of a million stakeholders.

BCLC’s programs and initiatives support efforts to improve long-term social and economic conditions in three ways:

VISIBILITY. BCLC amplifies individual company efforts and the overall business community’s unique and valuable contribution to society. INSIGHT. BCLC turns knowledge into action and results by sharing leading-edge information, practical strategies and best-practices companies can use. CONNECTIONS. BCLC brings the right people together through partnerships and coalitions to accelerate individual and collective success.

Together with its network of companies, BCLC helps build good will, good relations, and good markets.
