Why Join?

There are literally dozens of reasons to join PCA, but the primary reason is the fact that affiliation with PCA gives your business added credibility to clients and customers, as well as the government. We realize that our strength lies with our member registries, so PCA offers a variety of valuable assets to help our members grow within their communities.

We want registries to realize and take advantage of the many benefits of being a member of an association that focuses on your company's needs.

• PCA helps protect your business from federal government intrusion through advocacy and education. We keep you abreast of the most current news and events affecting your business model.
• PCA provides support to members who are engaged in advocacy at the state level.
• PCA provides press releases, letters to the editor, reports, and other public relations materials to set the record straight on the valuable services we provide to the public.
• Improve operations and profits by taking advantage of the educational opportunities at the PCA Annual Conferences and other events throughout the year.
• Gain access to the PCA E-Newsletter, which delivers the latest news and information specifically for caregiver registries right to your inbox.
• PCA established the Caregiver Registry Standards Board that has developed the nation’s only accreditation program to identify those registries that maintain compliance and continuity with the industry's highest standards.
• Access our exclusive Members Only area for valuable resources, such as sample forms and recordings of past webinars.

Every caregiver registry is dependent upon quality goods and services from trusted suppliers of insurance coverage, legal advice and defense, computer software, etc. PCA can helps you identify partners and vendors through industry affiliate programs.
