PASA Satellite Offices & Advisory Committees
Satellite Offices
Currently, in addition to PASA's headquarters office in Millheim, Centre County, we have satellite offices established in the Eastern and Western regions. Our goal is to establish additional regionally-based offices in the future. Contact information for these offices is at the bottom of this web page and staff contact information is available here.
Regional Advisory Committees
PASA's strength as an organization benefits tremendously from having member-based Regional Advisory Committees (RAC) actively engaged in our four membership regions. As our membership grows, the role of the RAC takes on even greater importance, providing a critical link between PASA's governing Board of Directors, staff, our diverse membership, and the potential audience for new members.
We hope members will embrace the opportunity to get involved. Your initiative and insights add greatly to PASA's presence and ultimately to our success in "farming for the future."
PASA's Eastern, North Central, Western & South Central regions continue to utilize the skills and knowledge of volunteer members that comprise our Regional Advisory Committees (RAC). Regional PASA staff and board members work with these advisors to help strengthen programs and strategic vision in the region. We thank these volunteers for their efforts:
