2025 PRSA Central PA Executive Leadership Slate

 

The Central PA PRSA Board of Directors is comprised solely of professional volunteers who make a year-long commitment to serve their colleagues and the Central Pennsylvania public relations community. While this can be a time-consuming commitment, it is also tremendously rewarding (and fun!).

We are proposing the following slate for the 2025 Central PA PRSA Board of Directors and seeking interest to help fill the open positions at hand. There are open positions interested, please take a look and reach out if you are interested in getting more involved. These professionals will be voted on during the upcoming joint social on Dec. 5. If you are interested in learning more about these open opportunities, please let us know. You can also have the opportunity to ask questions any time, or at the awards luncheon.
