CJSCN Regional Divisions
CJSCN divides its subscribers into different regions, which are used to organize local networking events and manage subscribers more efficiently. Liaisons for each region also act as a CJSCN point of contact for disseminating information as needed. On this page you’ll find a list of the CJSCN regions (a map showing the regional divisions based on California county lines is forthcoming). When CJSCN was first founded, we primarily conducted events in Northern California (areas in the jurisdiction of the Consulate General of Japan in San Francisco), but as of 2021, we were extremely pleased to be able to join forces with the Consulate General of Japan in Los Angeles and all the sister city organizations in Southern California as well. Any member of any California-Japan sister city organization is welcome to subscribe to our mailing list or attend CJSCN's events at any time.
