The Virginia Press Association was founded in the late 19th century and was incorporated by a special act
of the Virginia General Assembly in 1881.
We represent newspaper interests in the General Assembly through lobbying efforts. We also hold one of the
largest news, editorial and photography contests in the nation, annually attracting more than 5,000 entries.

resources. We champion the common interests of Virginia newspapers and the ideals of a free press in a democratic society.
Our Purpose
We connect our members through valuable business services, effective representation, practical communication
and information, and relevant education and recognition.
Our Values
The values important to the work of the VPA are fairness, dedication, integrity and honesty.
