The membership of PPA ultimately governs the association through its representatives in the PPA Council.

The Council consists of elected representatives from each state (under specified conditions), members of the Board of Directors, Chairmen of Standing Committees, Group Chairmen, Past Presidents of the Association, and Presidents of PPA International Affiliates. All PPA Professional Active, Life, and Retired members may vote in Council elections.

Councilors must be Professional Active, Life or Retired PPA members and can be nominated by a state, local, or chapter affiliate; or by five individual Professional Active, Life or Retired members of PPA. Ballots are sent to Professional Active or Life members through the mail. Eligible members then vote for the individuals that they feel would best represent the membership of PPA. Council elections are held every three years.

Each Council member represents all of the PPA members in his or her respective state. A Councilor’s duties include attending state and local association meetings, reporting to the state membership on PPA activities, encouraging membership in PPA, and maintaining constant liaison between PPA members and PPA headquarters.
