TRACIE BETTENHAUSEN
MEMBER SINCE 2007
IABC is my lifeline to communication professionals across industries and across the world. I tell new members, ‘whatever you put into IABC you will get back tenfold.’ Volunteer and you will meet lifelong friends and mentors. I have forged closer connections with colleagues here at home through IABC, but also have friends I can call when I need advice, a new perspective, or knowledge outside of my own experience.

MEMBER SINCE 2017
IABC is the most valuable professional organization I've ever been a part of. IABC keeps me on top of my communications game through professional development opportunities at the state, regional and international level. Through IABC, I've joined a phenomenal network of communications peers with whom I can share best practices. It was through that network that I landed my current professional role, and I'm so thankful! It's the best job I've ever had.

MEMBER SINCE 1992
I joined the Great Plains chapter of IABC in 1992. I’ve been a member ever since, even during retirement. IABC, locally and internationally, provides support through professional development, networking, and educational resources. Being a member of IABC was a necessary resource for me in solving communications problems, being introduced to new communications trends and maintaining relationships with other professionals.
