The Public Affairs Council holds more than 30 conferences and workshops annually, including the largest national conferences on corporate and association grassroots, political action committees and corporate philanthropy. Members receive substantial discounts on the vast majority of Council meetings. In fact, some members save enough money through conference discounts to cover their entire annual dues!
