The Urban Institute’s mission is to open minds, shape decisions, and offer practical solutions to the nation’s social and economic policy challenges through evidence-based research and objective analyses. We believe that decisions shaped by facts, rather than ideology, have the power to improve public policy and practice, strengthen communities, and transform people’s lives for the better.
