We present recent results on studies of spin orbit correlations using the Jefferson Lab CLAS detector and discuss both near term and long-term future plans with CLAS, including measurements with longitudinally and transversely polarized targets. Single Spin Asymmetries (SSAs) were measured with CLAS for unpolarized and longitudinally polarized targets using a longitudinally polarized beam. Measurements of SSA for charged and neutral pions indicate that there are significant spin and azimuthal asymmetries, which can be interpreted in terms of transverse momentum dependent (TMD) distributions.
