Strategic Leadership at the Apra Chapter Summit

The Apra Chapter Summit takes place Monday, Aug. 10 at the Hilton Chicago. This year, the Summit expands to a full-day event designed to foster collaboration and strategic alignment across our chapter network.

To support our community's growth, each Apra chapter is invited to send two leaders to participate in the Summit at no cost. Discover how this forum empowers your chapter to share best practices, deepen volunteer engagement, and advance the prospect development profession.

Chapter Summit Schedule: The program focuses on community-building and professional stewardship through the following sessions:

• • Opening Session: Introductory dialogue with the Apra Board of Directors.

• • Facilitated Brainstorming: A moderated workshop to identify chapter growth opportunities and shared challenges.

• • Networking Lunch: Joint luncheon with the Apra Board of Directors.

• • Strategic Report-Back: Review of brainstorming outcomes and actionable takeaways.

• • Peer-Led Programming: Afternoon sessions coordinated by fellow chapter leaders.

• • Facilitated Virtual Follow-up Session: A post-conference session held in September to continue the dialogue.

Travel and Accommodations: To support the expanded full-day schedule, the board will provide one complimentary hotel night for attending chapter leaders.

• • Arrival Recommendation: We suggest arriving Sunday, Aug. 9 to ensure participation in Monday morning’s opening sessions.

• • Registration Requirement: Please reserve your room for all nights required at the hotel. You will be asked to provide your hotel confirmation number when you register.
