YPAC is designed for emerging professionals who live or work in Anderson County, from any career field or profession.  

Membership in YPAC gives members access to YP-exclusive events, such as our bi-annual leadership forums where members will learn and get Q&A time with top business owners and professionals from our area who “made it big”.  Additionally, members will gain exposure to other government and business leaders in our area while learning and practicing leadership in their community. Our programs are designed to help mold young professionals into leaders in their communities and their organizations.
