ruler

The Georgetown Center on Poverty, Inequality, and Public Policy provides a forum in which researchers, policymakers, and others can explore and develop effective public policy responses to poverty and inequality in the United States.  The Center seeks to:

  • identify emerging issues that are – or should be – prominent in efforts to address poverty and economic opportunity, mobility, and security;
  • work with policy-oriented researchers and other experts in and outside of Washington in efforts to identify innovative and implementable policy solutions; and
  • promote interaction and seek to build consensus among researchers, policy advocates, and federal, state, and local policymakers in order to translate research into proposals that can advance public policy in the areas of the Center’s work.
