The partnership initiative is a new program by which ASPR seeks to build stronger relationships with corporate support to grow and advance the profession.

"This is an exciting time for ASPR and our first class of strategic corporate partners as we work together to grow the profession and acknowledge the important role they play in that mission," said ASPR executive director Carey Goryl, MSW, CAE.
