Non-Profit Incorporation

The DPA was officially incorporated as a 501(c)6 non-profit. This launched the DPA from a small group of producers to a legitimate organization able to support producers all over the DFW area.

Production Inclusivity

After a historic vote, the DPA by-laws were amended to be more inclusive of all production oriented roles seeking membership. The goal of this vote was to support a wider audience to production professionals in our ever more connected world.
