Patriot PIRG is formed to provide students an opportunity to make changes on campus and in their local communities through volunteering, networking, and advocating. Patriot PIRG, in conjunction with the national chapter of PIRGs, will allow students to plan and participate in social justice events such as phone banking, conversation halls, and lobby days. The organization will also provide a safe place for members to learn how to be a more active citizen with lessons on lobbying, effective communication strategies, spreading awareness, etc.
