The Price of Connection: Supporting SSP’s Mission in a Changing Economy
As the costs of delivering high-quality professional experiences continue to rise across our industry, SSP is making thoughtful, necessary adjustments to membership and Annual Meeting rates in the coming years. This update is intended to provide clear context and transparency around why these changes are needed and the steps we’re taking to manage costs while continuing to deliver meaningful value to our community.
