LEADING WITH PURPOSE
The East Bay Leadership Council is an employer-led public policy advocacy organization advancing economic vitality and quality of life across Contra Costa and Alameda counties. For nearly 90 years, we have convened employers and civic leaders and led effective, nonpartisan advocacy to shape regional policy and drive practical solutions. If you are ready to lead with impact, you are in the right place.
Helping Businesses Start, Stay, and Grow
Strong communities depend on strong employers. Building and sustaining a successful business requires creativity, commitment, and a policy environment that supports growth. EBLC works to ensure the East Bay remains competitive, innovative, and attractive to employers of all sizes. Together, we advocate for the conditions that allow businesses to start, stay, and grow.
Advancing A HIGH Quality of Life
Economic vitality and quality of life go hand in hand. We champion policies that preserve open space, invest in reliable transportation, expand access to health care, and address the region’s housing needs. By aligning economic strength with community well-being, we help ensure the East Bay remains a place where employers and residents can thrive.
