Why Work For Us?: 

The Center is a non-partisan research and policy institute that works at the federal and state levels on fiscal policy and public programs that affect low- and moderate-income families and individuals.  The Center has attained a national reputation for its unique capacity to blend rigorous, timely analyses with activities designed to enable policymakers and the media to make use of its work.

 

Bringing diverse perspectives to state policy debates.

To expand the diversity of voices that speak with authority in state policy debates and in philanthropic and other stakeholder communities, we welcome highly motivated candidates — with particular attention to candidates who have experience with communities that are underrepresented in state policy debates and who have demonstrated skill in communicating about public policies that affect low-income and diverse communities and have implications for racial equity.
