In the Program on Growth Issues, the Program on Education Policy and the Program on Tax Policy we are committed to nonpartisan, fact-based examination of the issues facing the Pikes Peak Region and the state of Colorado. Most of our work can be found right here on this website, making it accessible to interested citizens and policymakers. Faculty with expertise in a variety of areas, along with some of our best students, conduct applied research and provide advice and information to state and local governments and nonprofit organizations The Elizabeth Cushman Internship in Public Policy funds outstanding students participation in this work.
