Auxiliary conventions are held in conjunction with the biennial conventions of the National Association of Letter Carriers.

During daily sessions, delegates deliberate on the business of the organization, hear updates from national officers on current programs and future plans, listen to congressional speakers on legislation and political issues, and find out about current developments in Muscular Dystrophy research from MDA representatives, including the MDA poster child. Member-delegates decide on future support of charitable works and new directions and activities to promote the welfare of letter carriers and their families.

Throughout the week, the Auxiliary seeks to broaden camaraderie and fellowship between its members, thereby strengthening the organization to carry on its work in support of the NALC.
