Special Interest Groups (SIGs)
Special Interest Groups (SIGs) are member-coordinated groups that focus on a particular area of practice interest. SIGs usually meet and correspond virtually, but space is allotted at the MPA Annual Convention & Exposition for interested SIGs to meet in person. To enroll in one of the SIGs, email the listed staff coordinator to be added to the distribution list. Below are the six SIGs you can get involved with in MPA:
