Pi Phi Voices Can Help Shape the Future

For more than a decade, fraternity and sorority members have traveled to Washington, D.C., to meet with members of Congress and advocate for legislation that directly affects our community. Each year, Pi Phi recommends collegians to join that effort through the National Panhellenic Conference (NPC).

Lawmakers hear from policy experts all the time, but they don’t always hear from the students who experience fraternity and sorority life every day. Pi Phi lobbyists bring that perspective into congressional offices, sharing how this community has shaped their collegiate experience.

Along the way, lobbyists sharpen their advocacy skills and see firsthand how legislation takes shape. They also meet with fraternity and sorority members from across the country, building relationships that can keep opening doors long after they leave the Hill.
