How does membership in PRSA assist you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cPRSA membership is like having a built-in Jedi council of wise leaders who understand, have great ideas, and are always there for you. A few of my closest relationships have been developed through our PRSA Alaska Chapter,\u201d said Josie. \u201cAs I think back on my greatest professional achievements, PRSA members were there encouraging me. On May 19, 2022, my team received an Anvil at the 2022 PRSA National Anvil Awards, and it would not have been possible without PRSA members and this professional society of public relations practitioners. To all of the PRSA members who continue to be an important part of my life and Jedi council: \u2018Thank you!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

PRSA Alaska Volunteering<\/strong><\/p>\n

Josie co-chairs the chapter\u2019s membership committee this year with Teal Soden. \u201cThis is the best volunteer opportunity because we get to share the numerous benefits for becoming a PRSA member. It is fun to share why we love being a part of our Alaska Chapter of PRSA and how it has made a positive difference in our lives,\u201d said Josie. \u201cIf you want to join the membership committee, all are welcome. I encourage everyone to volunteer in our professional society in some way.\u201d<\/p>\n
