The Community Advisory Panel is comprised of community leaders providing advice and counsel to the League and its committees; and supporting the League and its activities in the community. In addition to keeping the League apprised of community trends, opinions and needs, the panel also strives to make sure the community stays informed about the League’s projects and other volunteer initiatives. Their input helps the JLCC maintain and develop meaningful and diverse projects and programs to continue its support in the broader Collin County community.  The panel is also responsible for selecting recipients for the Collin County Women of Influence Awards and Founder’s Scholarship.
