Ventura County Coalition of Labor, Agriculture & Business

Collaboration & common sense.

We promote a strong local economy and fight to preserve the quality of life in Ventura County by working collaboratively with a broad coalition of informed stakeholders and experts.

A full-time watchdog for labor, agriculture and business

VC CoLAB collaborates with partners, public agencies and decision makers to provide sensible solutions for complicated and excessive regulations. We identify and research issues that impact businesses, work with regulatory agencies, engage experts in science, economics, engineering and law, testify at public meetings, and organize stakeholders.

We read the regulations so you don’t have to

We at CoLAB read the regulations and give you the facts so you know how your business will be impacted. We do our research and have our ear to the ground to anticipate what is coming next.
