Causes: Public & Societal Benefit
Mission: The Pacific Research Institute for Public Policy promotes the principles of individual freedom and personal responsibility. The Institute believes these principles are best encouraged through policies that emphasize a free economy, private initiative, and limited government. By focusing on public policy issues such as education, the environment, law, economics, and social welfare, the Institute strives to foster a better understanding of the principles of a free society among leaders in government, academia, the media, and the business community.
Programs: Now more than ever, it is vital that our policy responses are guided by the principles that best preserve the essence of America – its entrepreneurial spirit, belief in the dignity of individuals, and vigilant defense of liberty. The mission of the Pacific Research Institute (PRI) is to champion freedom, opportunity, and personal responsibility for all individuals by advancing free-market policy solutions. Since its founding in 1979, PRI has remained steadfast to the vision of a free and civil society where individuals can achieve their full potential. Put simply, public policy is too important to be left just to the experts. Individuals are the real decision makers when it comes to their schools, health care, and environment. PRI reinforces this ideal by providing you with the information, inspiration, and opportunity to make decisions about the daily issues that matter most to you. The Institute’s activities include publications, events, media commentary, legislative testimony, and community outreach. PRI’s current program advances policy reform to achieve these goals: * Education – to provide all students with access to a quality education * Business and Economics – to strike down barriers to economic growth and innovation * Health Care – to provide better quality and access to health-care while lowering costs * Environment – to sustain the trend toward a cleaner environment Worthy policy goals with such broad impact are not easily attained, and they require sustained effort and struggle. Together with its alliance of dedicated supporters, PRI is committed to leading the way toward a more free and prosperous future for all.
