The Virginia Chapter of APCO maintains a list server as a means of communicating with its members. Subscribers may send messages to all other subscribed Chapter members via the list server; however, currently it is typically used for officers and committee chairs to disseminate information to the membership.

Pertinent instructions for subscribers appear below. Be sure to keep your e-mail address up-to-date with APCO International, and notify the list administrator of any immediate changes to your address.
