Chapter Leader Tools

Chapter Leadership Retreat

Each fall, PCMA hosts a Chapter Leadership Retreat, which is designed to bring key chapter volunteers together for an interactive exchange of ideas and best practice sharing. Meet and network with other chapter leaders and take part in top-notch educational sessions. With the tools gained from the CLR, you will be empowered to successfully lead PCMA's chapters in the year ahead! Last year's CLR in Las Vegas drew more than 45 chapter leaders.
