Nongovernmental memberships include:
-
NASS/ACR Corporate Affiliate: These are corporations who are registered with the National Association of Secretaries of State (NASS) as a corporate affiliate.
The levels for a yearly corporate affiliate include: Platinum, Gold, and Silver. Contact Stacy Dodd at (202) 624-3525 about becoming a NASS Corporate Affiliate.

NASS/ACR Corporate Sponsor: These are companies who sponsor conferences at different levels – from $5,000 up to $20,000. Contact Stacy Dodd at (202) 624-3525 about becoming Summer Conference Sponsor.
-
NASS/ACR Corporate Member: These are companies that are not registered with NASS as a corporate affiliate or corporate sponsor but still want to participate at the ACR winter meeting or summer conference. Some of these members still support ACR by sponsoring an event, or a breakfast, lunch or dinner that are not on the agenda.
A NASS/ACR corporate affiliate and/or sponsor membership has an advantage as the company pays less to sign up for a meeting or conference. Attendees representing a company that are NOT a NASS corporate affiliate or sponsor should register as “corporate non-members.”
NETWORKING OPPORTUNITIES:
Networking among state rules personnel is an important objective of ACR.
- The Google Group is one way to network with members.
- Attending ACR meetings and conferences are another way to interact and learn from members.
Conferences focus on legal issues in rulemaking; printing, marketing, and distribution strategies; rules review; and advances in computer and publication technology. Sessions include panels, demonstrations, and speakers of national reputation.
Conference dates, schedules and registration fees are posted on this website.
