The Corporate Advisory Council (CAC) is a body composed of NGLCC corporate partners. Its two-fold mission is to discuss issues in which the NGLCC, its membership and those members of the CAC can work together to raise pubic awareness regarding diversity. Through joint project partnerships, memorandums of understanding, and other avenues, the CAC and the NGLCC seek to educate Corporate America and the public as to the economic benefits of providing a diverse workplace and creating mutually beneficial relationships with the LGBT and LGBT-friendly business community. Additionally, the CAC will gather to ensure members are meeting the needs of the LGBT business and professional community and to ensure the NGLCC and its membership are meeting the needs of the CAC.
