Links

Some places of possible interest to PILS members. Some of these groups have definite political leanings, but this list is not exhaustive nor does it represent the view of PILS, its officers, etc. If there are other groups / kinds of groups you are interested in, please let us know!

I don't know if any of these places are hiring. This is just to give you some idea of what's out there.
