The return of our community

Built by association pros,
for association pros.

Since the dissolution of the Association Media & Publishing Network Council in 2023, a vital gap has existed for professionals in association publishing, marketing, and communications. APCP was founded to fill that void and bring our community back together.

Mission

To elevate the impact of associations by championing best practices in strategic communications, marketing, and high-quality publishing.

Vision

A future that promotes collaboration and innovative leadership, helping our members build strong, measurable connections with their audiences.

A relaunch with intent.

Our brand identity is being developed. A final logo and visual system will replace the placeholder you see today.
