CHRISTIAN EDUCATORS ASSOCIATION INTERNATIONAL
MEMBER SERVICE REPORT
November, 2018 - February, 2019
In our last Member Service Report, we “pulled back the veil” a bit on how CEAI serves our members in need by explaining our case categories, how many of each category we received, and a few examples of them.
In this report, we’ve compiled the same data for you, but also have provided some geographic representation of where our cases came from.
What is a Member Service Case?
