For over 30 years, the Western States Sign Council (WSSC) has endeavored to represent the interests of sign association members from Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming. WSSC and its affiliates work closely with the International Sign Association for the mutual benefit of the industry. Comprised of representatives from the six state associations, the WSSC Board of Directors meet several times each year to conduct regular business of the organization and to plan fundraising activities in support of important sign industry activities. Funding received from various activities is dispersed to the state associations of the WSSC for their use in educational programs, membership development, advocacy efforts with local and state governments, as well as other activities directly benefitting members of the industry.
