About AACA
The Atlanta Area Compensation Association (AACA) was formed in 1990 by a group of compensation and benefits professionals interested in fostering education and exchange of information among compensation and benefits practitioners and policy makers.
AACA is a member of the WorldatWork Group Partnership Network, an international network of more than 80 compensation associations organized to facilitate communication and information sharing among its members. AACA is a nonprofit organization.
AACA is the local affiliate of WorldatWork, the premier international total rewards association.

AACA Gives Back: Supporting Our Atlanta Community
As a community of compensation professionals, AACA is proud to support the Atlanta Metro area through meaningful outreach initiatives that make a read difference.
Each year, our members come together to sponsor drives that benefit organizations such as Atlanta Angels, Toys for Tots, Empty Stocking Fund, Must Ministries, the Drake House, and Blessings in a Backpack. Thanks to your generosity, we’ve donated hundreds of books, toys and other necessities, helping bring joy to hundreds of children and families across Metro Atlanta.
Our commitment to fighting food insecurity is reflected in our contributions to Open Hand Atlanta, where we help pack and provide healthy meals that are delivered to families in need. We also support the United Way’s Snack Pack event, assembling snack packs for students in underserved communities.
These efforts reflect our shared values and dedication to making a positive impact in the communities where we live and work. Thank you to all who have participated, and we look forward to continuing this important work together!
