We promote professionalism in the field of public information and among KAPIO members and exist to create a network of communication professionals. We conduct and sponsor activities to improve communication among public sector and quasi-public organizations and serve as an information resource for government management and communications professionals. We are a vehicle for professional growth. We seek to raise the consciousness of public sector management and promote the importance of public information to members of the general public and highlight the necessity for public information operations in the public sector. We promote ethical standards within which such operations should be conducted.
