Better than nothing. Like any org, local chapter is the most important thing. There are green party chapters with MLs in charge and there are PSL chapters with sex pests in charge. Try and see what they do in your community. If they do work you agree with, great, if they are inactive or you don't like the work they do, find something better. Can't hurt to check it out though. Maybe great, maybe terrible, but you'll never know if you don't show up and see for yourself.
