Topical Member Discussions
The corporate social impact landscape is constantly evolving—navigating it takes fresh insights, shared experiences, and a strong network of peers.

Member Groups
ACCP was founded on the premise that we are stronger together. Member Groups connect ACCP members to share experiences, build partnerships, and learn from diverse perspectives—strengthening impact through community.

ACCP Peer Circles
NEW in 2025
Strong relationships fuel impactful work. Our Peer Circles program is designed to connect ACCP members in small, carefully curated groups for a three-month journey of shared learning, support, and growth.
Through an application-based matching process, participants will be grouped with peers who share similar goals and challenges. The program kicks off with a virtual gathering for all participants, setting the stage for meaningful engagement. From there, groups are encouraged to meet bi-weekly on their own schedule to exchange ideas, navigate challenges, and strengthen their professional networks.
At the end of the three months, participants can choose to continue their connections or request a new match for fresh perspectives. Whether you’re seeking inspiration, accountability, or a trusted network, Peer Circles will help you build the relationships that drive your work forward. Please connect with Hillary Roviaro (hillary@accp.org) to learn more.
