Public Relations and Marketing Strategist

IAP2 USA was organized in 2010 as an Affiliate of IAP2, which was founded in 1990 in North America. A key differentiator between us and similar organizations is the decision-oriented, objective-driven, and values-based conceptual design for public participation that is at the center of the IAP2 approach. While many organizations focus on a particular technique, IAP2 has always emphasized the importance of program design and goals identification as a precursor and prerequisite for developing effective and meaningful public participation.IAP2 USA is continuing to grow our leadership position in the United States by being a preferred provider of the approach, concepts, and tools to elevate the quality and integrity of public participation.IAP2 USA is a private, nonprofit, membership organization currently serving more than 3,000 members – in public agencies, academia, consulting firms, and nonprofits, and ranging from college students to seasoned professionals. Our regional chapters provide members with local networking and collaboration opportunities.
