Their courage and dedication to the merit shop philosophy spread rapidly and within time ABC became the fastest growing association in the United States. Today ABC has over 24,000 member firms. ABC's activities are targeted to meet its members needs. ABC supports members with government representation, legal advocacy, education and training, communications support, information resources, access to technology, recognition through awards programs, business development, information on best practices, insurance and fringe benefit programs and much more.
