Organizations such as PRSA are very important because they offer a lot for students like me, such as workshops, networking events, and a place to gain real world experience through seasoned professionals in the local area. I believe that communication students and professionals can truly gain a lot through this organization.” – Candice Joseph, 2020 PRSA Orlando/Frank R. Stansberry scholarship recipient
