PPA Brings Brains and Hearts to Our Work
One of the things that makes Public Policy Associates unique is our collected team of experts. From around the country, and focused on Michigan, our team has been selected to not only offer the best in research, evaluation, and consultation, but to also bring to the work the attention for what is possible. Working on better public policy for a better world.
In other words, our team cares deeply about each of the policy areas they work in and they are driven to help bring about better public policy for all Michiganders.
As we celebrate our 35 years, we can’t help but reflect on our team throughout the years. There are many leaders (from nonprofits to government) that have called PPA home. But… there is something that feels special about our current team.
“I would say the quality of the PPA team is as good as it’s ever been,” said CEO Rob Fowler, “and is the smartest group of people I have been around in my life.” You can explore and get to know our team on our website.
This month we are pleased to introduce our newest team member. Not only is Graphic Design Associate Caroline Brent-Chessum our recent spotlight, but the interview is an opportunity to see some of her design work. Check it out!
Also, carrying on our conversation from last month, we are happy to share some insights and highlights from this year’s Mackinac Policy Conference.
Finally, we are happy to share a new report on food security and child care.
