Via press release on October 2, 2026, PCFJ announced the most recent meeting of its full membership, held on Sept. 24-25, 2026 in Gettysburg.
The meeting, which was the Commission’s first in-person conference since 2024, generated lively discussion and new collaborative opportunities, highlighting the direct benefits of PCFJ’s successful advocacy for a budget that permits the organization to resume critical operations and continue pursuing its numerous strategic initiatives.
The meeting served as a celebration of the momentous tenure of outgoing Executive Director, Maraleen Shields, Esq., who formally announced her intended departure in July. As only the Commission’s second Executive Director in its 21-year history, Executive Director Shields secured historic achievements for the Commission, including a full complement of appointments to the Commission, the Commission’s first budget increase in nearly two decades, and the expansion of professional partnerships across the Commonwealth.
