Membership

Find the membership type that fits your life

Three options, no gatekeeping. You can always upgrade as your involvement grows.

Why membership matters

Members set the direction

Membership in People Pfirst isn't symbolic. Voting Members decide endorsements, approve major organizational decisions, and elect the board. If you want a real say in the work, that's where it happens.

Full (Voting) and Associate memberships are $30/year. Pick the membership type that fits you, complete the join form, and choose the matching donation amount when you submit. If dues are not a fit right now, Advocate Membership is still a way to participate.
