PNCWA Regions & Sections

Regions within PNCWA and the PNCWA sponsored Sections within the Regions are independent organizations with their own governance and are recognized and chartered by PNCWA.

Four Regions form the link between the Sections and the PNCWA Board of Directors. The Regions are Idaho, Oregon, Eastern Washington, and Western Washington. Each Region is represented by a Regional Director who serves on the PNCWA Board of Directors.

Independent local PNCWA Sections are active in each of the four regions, providing training and networking to meet the needs and interests of the area. 

Membership in a local Section need not be restricted to those who are members of the Association. The Section President and the Section Treasurer must be members of WEF/PNCWA . Sections may require and collect Section dues separate from PNCWA membership. (Note: Section membership does not constitute membership in PNCWA or WEF. Sections should communicate that in order to receive PNCWA benefits such as discounted registration at the PNCWA annual conference, an individual must also be a member of PNCWA or WEF.)

Website links for those Sections which maintain their websites are available below.
