Leadership

The FICPA serves its more than 19,000 members needs at a local level through its 27 chapters across Florida. These chapters are further grouped into six geographical regions. Each region and the chapters within that region hold and promote programming of local interest and provide a conduit for communication with the FICPA leadership.  Each of these chapters has its own set of elected officers, consisting of a president, president-elect, secretary and treasurer.

Regional and local chapter members also provide locally elected representatives to serve on the FICPA Board of Governors.  The 36-member Board of Governors, the governing body of the FICPA, is made up of six regional representatives, 19 members-at-large, the three most recent past presidents and the eight members of the Executive Committee.  The Executive Committee is made up of the FICPA president, president-elect, five vice-presidents and the Executive Director, who serves as the secretary-treasurer. Each of these officers, with the exception of the Executive Director, serves a one-year term that runs from July 1 to June 30.

In addition to the chapter and board officers, the FICPA has dozens of committees, Sections and task forces which have steering committees assigned to provide leadership for these targeted groups.
