Changing Lives by providing Bulk Mail processing and mailing services to local non-profits and small
CLA (Changing Lives & Attitudes) is a social enterprise which supports and enriches the community by cutting mail costs for non-profit organizations and businesses while providing job experience for underemployed adults.
In addition to offering Bulk Mail processing (200+ pieces qualify for USPS Bulk Mail service) our mail prepation services include folding, stuffing, sealing, labeling, tabbing and stamping. The process is very simple and same-day service is always our goal.
We also offer limited printing services for our mailers.
Best of all, the work is performed by adults who face significant challenges to employment. Changing Lives and Attitudes is at the core of our mission.
