The Carlsbad Village Association (CVA) is a small business and understands the fears and concerns facing our nation, and certainly our Village. So, when we say "we're in this together," we really mean it! But, we are confident that with the guidance of our City leaders, and the amount of credible information and quality resources being provided to help all of us weather this unprecedented storm, that we will come out of this stronger and more resilient than before. To that end, CVA will continue to work closely with the City, County Public Health, the Carlsbad Chamber of Commerce, and others to help provide accurate, up-to-date information.
