Public Interest Group Profiles 2006-2007


Now in its twelfth edition, Public Interest Group Profiles places the information you need about America’s most influential public advocacy groups at your fingertips. Rather than searching through dozens of documents, databases, or Web sites, you can turn to one trusted and authoritative source for vital information such as: assessments of group effectiveness and group political orientation, contact information, mission statements, funding sources, leadership and membership information, publication lists, and methods of advocacy. A topical table of contents makes finding groups by issue easier than ever before.

Key Features of Public Interest Group Profiles 2006-2007 include:

  • America’s most influential groups, as identified by the Foundation for Public Affairs and CQ Press
  • Multiple indexes, including a name index that allows users to determine the multiple affiliations of directors and leadership staff
  • Internship and employment contact information to help users discover career opportunities in public advocacy
  • Expanded information on leadership, group political activities, and funding sources

Reviews
"Although all of these groups have Web sites, this volume provides faster and better quick reference. For students who need material for a project or paper, it is a good place to begin. Summing Up: Recommended. Lower-level undergraduates, professionals, and general readers." - Choice

"A priceless and powerfully informative alphabetized 783-page directory of 225 public interest groups on 14 leding topics… the directory is invaluable, helpful, and useful to anyone searching for a public interest group concerning predominant subjects."
