Community Relations Committee

The Community Relations Committee is the chapter's service entity. This committee provides programs and other communication services to the Gainesville community to help promote FPRA.

The committee typically works with local non-profit organizations to provide seminars on public relations or to deliver a complete public relations campaign plan to a non-profit in need of assistance. If your non-profit organization is interested in being considered by next year's committee, please submit your request in writing to FPRA Gainesville Attention: Community Relations Director, PO Box 12498, Gainesville, FL 32604.
