All chapter presidents are a member of the Chapter Presidents' Council (CPC). The purpose of the CPC is to provide a forum to discuss chapter issues, share ideas, and find solutions. This forum generates recommendations to the national board of directors. The CPC members are represented by these leaders, whom they elect each year.
