We are organized as a California 501(c)3 nonprofit corporation, certified tax exempt by both the IRS and California Franchise Tax Board.
We are affiliated with and originated from the UC Berkeley student group, also named the Language Creation Society (UCB-LCS). UCB-LCS is a subsidiary of the ASUC, a tax-exempt California non-profit association, and is the group that entirely ran the first LCC and handled most of the finances for LCC2.
You can reach the LCS by emailing (which goes to the executive committee), for the LCC organizers, or one of the directors below.
