State Chapters


If you need more information about your local ACE State Chapter or would like to participate, please contact the following ACE Chapter Presidents found below.

ACE State Chapters help adult nightclub owners stay in business and thrive instead of just surviving or worse, going out of business. Today, it is not your competitor who will put you out of business but rather Evangelical associations such as: Community Defense Counsel (CDC) Not In My Backyard (NIMBY), the CCV or other Christian Coalitions. By sharing resources, information and networking we can build a formidable defense capable of heading off most negative challenges created by such groups. ACE State Chapters help adult nightclub owners by:

  • Conducting Secondary Effects, Anthropological and Epidemiological studies by prestigious Ph.D.'s and Universities
  • Finding Lobbyists
  • Tracking state level legislation
  • Fund raising
  • Political education 
  • Conducting nonpartisan voter registration
  • First Amendment Attorney Referrals
  • Joining forces with groups who share similar goals in protecting small business and Freedom of speech or expression.
  • Meeting to discuss and develop strategies to protect the adult nightclub industry
  • Supporting charitable events
  • Ensuring good community standards and relationships
  • Providing industry provider discounts on ATM Services, Comprehensive Insuarnace Packages for the club industry, Discounted Credit Card Processing Services and Discounted Music Licesning Fees.
  • Offering resource materials in support of the industry.

Please support your ACE State Chapter and the adult nightclub industry.
" Together We Can Make a Difference!"
