Networking An important part of belonging to ABWA is the networking opportunities. Whether one already has a business or is interested in starting one, networking is the way to go. At each monthly meeting, time is set aside for members to network with each other and promote their businesses. Verdugo Glen belongs to the Los Angeles Area Council (LAAC), Impact Council and Inland Valley Council which allow the members to network with other chapters from all over the greater Southern California area.

In addition, the Chapter is an active participant in the Orange County and Los Angeles "Biggest Mixers", area State Legislator's "Women in Business" luncheon, Salvation Army "Angel Tree" and other community events.
