Provider Agency Membership
Provider Agency Membership is available to any human service provider agency within Pennsylvania serving the child welfare, juvenile probation, children's behavioral health or education systems.
Membership Overview
Provider Members are welcome to attend meetings, serve on agency workgroups, act in advisory capacities, and promote the priorities of the Council. They can also chair PCCYFS committees and be a voting member of the PCCYFS Board of Directors. Provider Members are entitled to receive access to PCCFYS newsletters, distributions, and information sharing. Provider Members are invited to all member-only events and are entitled to member pricing for agency trainings and events such as the annual conference.
The PCCYFS membership year is July 1 through June 30. Membership renews automatically and updated annual dues invoices are sent to members each subsequent fiscal year. Normally, annual membership dues can be recalculated without members giving additional information, but occassionally members are asked to provide updated fiscal documents.
Any requests to cancel membership, or any documents that need to be provided to support a membership application should be e-mailed to hbgoffice@pccyfs.org, or mailed to: PCCYFS, 3425 Simpson Ferry Road, Suite 201, Camp Hill, PA 17011.
