How the board works

Structure

PCA is a 501(c)(6) professional association headquartered in Harrisburg. Each of the six regions elects two directors and two alternates. An alternate is seated when a regional director is absent. In odd-numbered years, members elect a President-Elect, who sits on the Executive Committee and succeeds the President.
