Composed of individuals who have been active PSP members for anywhere from 5 to 24 years, the board includes a diverse set of professional backgrounds, such as lawyers, engineers, writers, communications professionals, mental health professionals, and medical professionals. It includes members with deep institutional knowledge and more recent PSP members with young children who bring fresh viewpoints. Critically, the board is structured to explicitly include a wide array of perspectives; some members were chosen specifically because they previously voiced different viewpoints or challenged ideas of policies, ensuring a robust and well-rounded approach to guiding the community. PSP's Advisory Board is appointment-based, and its members serve open terms.
