Why join WPC?

By N. Adrienne Churchill, Membership Chair

I could talk about:
• Professional development
• Journalism
• Kansas Professional Communicators (KPC, state organization)
• A monthly luncheon featuring savvy presenters
• Marketing and public relations
• Community focus and involvement
• Our annual communications contest
• National Federation of Press Women (NFPW, national organization)
• Social Media
• Local scholarship for students of communications and related programs
• Our annual JOIN WPC incentive of 15 months for the price of 12!*
• Notification of employment opportunities
• WPC-ICT, Independent Communications Talent
• Articulate and thought-provoking conversation

These are all great reasons to consider joining Wichita Professional Communicators, but the single BEST reason is to forge a relationship with each of our current 51 amazing members! The sheer wealth of our membership’s cumulative experience spans historical, contemporary and emerging aspects of the communications spectrum—and now is the time to add your story to ours.
