ASAE tracks a wide range of legislative, regulatory, and legal issues, looking at policy matters in terms of their potential impact on associations.

ASAE helps shape public policy through grassroots activism, our political action committee, and the Power of Associations campaign. [The Power of Associations Fund (opens in a new tab)](https://my.asaecenter.org/product/the-power-of-associations/)
 along with the [Power of Associations Awards (opens in a new tab)](http://www.thepowerofa.org/awards/)
 and the annual [Summit Awards Dinner](/community/awards-recognition/annual-summit-awards/)
 support ASAE’s public policy initiatives.
