PCC-CHAT is a UUA-provided email list for Partner Church folk to share information with and ask questions of a knowledgeable and interested audience. Partner Church Council members in good standing may participate in the "PCC-CHAT" e-mail discussion group. If you are an individual or institutional member of the PCC, we encourage you to subscribe to PCC-CHAT.

To join PCC-CHAT, simply complete the PCC-CHAT Subscription Request Form to automatically generate and send your subscription request.

We encourage every individual PCC member who has a computer and email to sign up for PCC-CHAT. We encourage each institutional PCC member to have AT LEAST one person sign up for PCC-CHAT, to print out and share any relevant messages with their local Partner Church Committee.
