The Liberty Partnerships Programs (LPP) depends on Marist students to help provide comprehensive services to over 250 participants per year. Marist students either volunteer their time or are paid through the College Work-Study funds.
During the 2006-2007 academic year, over 40 Marist students served as tutors, interns, mentors or volunteers. The majority of tutors are majoring in Education. In recent surveys, 100% of tutors and mentors indicated that LPP helped them in their professional development and would recommend LPP to other Marist students for work experience.
Many Marist campus organizations have assisted LPP in providing events for students such as the annual Harvest Festival. These organizations include Circle K, Dance Club, Kappa Lambda Psi, Psychology Club, Teachers of Tomorrow, Sigma Sigma Sigma, Theatre Arts Club, Asian Alliance Club, Alpha Sigma Tau, Gender Equality, Kappa Kappa Gamma, Communication Arts Society, Student Program Council, Student Government Association, Black Student Union, and Phi Kappa Sigma.
