The Congress itself is a member-society of the National Fraternal Congress of America. The WFC is a unique trade association comprised of 35 fraternal benefit societies, six of which are domiciled in the state. Direction is given by an Executive Board, comprised of volunteer representatives from various fraternal benefit societies. The WFC retains a legislative consultant who keeps the group updated on legislation that may positively or adversely affect fraternal benefit societies. At present, the consultant is former governor, Martin J. Schreiber.
