The Santa Barbara Chapter of the STC

The Society for Technical Communication (STC) is the world's largest professional organization for technical writers, technical illustrators, and anyone else who bridges the communication gap between those who create technical things and those who use them.

The Santa Barbara chapter is a friendly chapter with about 40 members. Visitors are always welcome at our meetings, which are usually the fourth Thursday every other month.
