The PRSA Public Affairs & Government Section Summit has outstanding networking opportunities and targeted public affairs and government communications programming.

 

 

 

The Public Affairs and Government 2026 Summit features three days of professional development, idea interaction, and networking among those whose talents are in high demand at the nexus of public policy, community safety and protection, crisis communications, and environmental concerns.

The Summit addresses the multi-disciplinary interests of public affairs professionals and provides access to valuable resources for communicators who hold public affairs roles in the private, nonprofit, and NGO sectors, as well as communicators with key roles in local, state, and national governing bodies and the military. Topics include government relations, JIC/NIMS, crisis communications, strategic planning, conflict resolution, community relations, “train the trainer” for media relations, artificial intelligence, and podcasting.
