Through focused educational programs, the PCC strives to help industry members and their organizations grow and develop professionally.

Membership is open to all business mailers who use the services of the Postal Service within the sponsoring Postal Service manager's geographic are Postal Customer Councils, created in 1961, provide a unique opportunity for any business to meet with top level managers of the Postal Service to obtain information, share ideas, address issues, grow their business and network with other business colleagues.

The Postal Service generally receives no tax dollars for operating expenses and relies on the sale of postage, products and services to fund its operations.
