Our Goals and Objectives

To be the primary source for information and services for Pennsylvania county human resource personnel
To provide industry leading conferences, training and resources for Pennsylvania county human resource personnel
To provide legislative advocacy on human resource and employment related policy
To follow the standards of a chapter of the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM)*
