Our mission is to strengthen democracy and improve people's lives by helping leaders and citizens address public problems.
About Us
Founded in 1975 by Dan Yankelovich and Cyrus Vance, Public Agenda is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that helps communities and the nation tackle divisive civic problems through:
• In-depth, qualitative and quantitative research that illuminates the views and values of stakeholders and the public
• On-the-ground, proven, engagement methods that help stakeholders build common ground on complex problems and find ways to work together toward solution
• Innovative communications strategies that build momentum for change.
Through our work, we aim to help citizens understand and participate in public life and leaders understand and respond better to those they are charged with serving. We foster progress on a wide range of issues, including education reform, foreign policy, energy, the environment, and healthcare. Our goal is to contribute to a democracy in which problem solving triumphs over gridlock and inertia, and where public policy reflects the deliberations and values of the citizenry.
