California Community Economic Development Benefit Corporation

The California Community Economic Development Benefit Corporation, Inc. was incorporated on May 29, 2012. The stated purposes include promoting the application of CED principles and practices, fostering the incorporation of additional CED Benefit Corporations throughout the State of California and helping foster innovation, collaboration, job creation and sustainable communities. The initial board members are Rev. Dr. Les Turner and Rev. Dr. Audrey Turner from Julian, CA and Charles Betterton, MSCED, from Sedona, AZ.

We are in the process of inviting individuals, non-profit organizations and companies involved in any facet of Community Economic  Development and who live in and or have interests in the State of California to  join with us in establishing CED Benefit Corporations in the State.  If you would like to participate, or would like more information, please contact Charles Betterton at 760-212-9931 or  by email at info@cedbcorp.com
