The Chapters
Each CCPA Chapter has a special relationship with a CCPA Board member who has agreed to become a Chapter liaison. This system is intended to provide a two-way information conduit between the Chapter and the Board.
There are several Chapters within CCPA, representing various Regional or Interest groups.
Many members belong to one or more Chapters depending on their field of work, their location or their interests. When you become a member of a Chapter, you receive email updates from them in regards to events, advancements in the field and many other information items. You join a community of like-minded practitioners and have the opportunity to connect on topics that matter to you. During conferences, you also have the chance to meet and work together on issues involving that Chapter’s particular mission.
There is an additional fee to be part of a Chapter. Call the National office for more details on how to join (Toll free: 1-877-765-5565).
Chapters are refundable up to 30 days after initial purchase.
