dedicated to bringing people together in the fight for a stronger
society, a healthier planet, and a government that works for all
Americans- not just corporations. If that sounds slightly ambitious,
that's because it is. The organizations that make up the Public Interest
Network each strive for solutions on their own, while the force of our

economic spectrum. Several of those organizations are headquartered in
the Boston office, which is home to approximately 70 full time staff and
