Champions Council

The changing policy landscape has become a clear call for our community of practice to come together, form a strong voice and strengthen our collective efforts through collaboration, credentialing, mentoring and advocacy. The time is now. ACCO was conceived and designed for this -- but to take this next step, we need a chorus of stakeholders championing this effort.  The following leaders have joined ACCO's Champions Council.  You are welcome to consult them about ACCO and our community of practice.
