We are happy to announce that we have a new website address that reflects our recent name change: www.cccadc.org

In early 2023, we changed our name to the Chevy Chase Community Association from the Chevy Chase Citizens Association to recognize our mission to be an inclusive neighborhood organization. Using the word “community” gives CCCA a valuable opportunity to broadcast a welcoming message that may help neighbors experience a higher level of connectedness to each other and may encourage neighbors to participate in community affairs, including programs developed by CCCA.
