About Public Agenda |
Founded in 1975 by social scientist and author Daniel Yankelovich and former U.S. Secretary of State
Cyrus Vance, Public Agenda works to help average citizens better understand critical policy issues and
to help the nation's leaders better understand the public's point of view. Public Agenda's particular
expertise lies in crafting research studies that explore different points of view with empathy and
probe beneath surface responses to capture the public's concerns and assumptions. Our in-depth research
on how citizens think about policy forms the basis for extensive citizen education work. Its citizen
education materials, used by the National Issues Forums and media outlets across the country, have won
praise for their credibility and fairness from elected officials from both political parties and from
experts and decision makers across the political spectrum. Our Web site, Public Agenda Online
(www.publicagenda.org) provides comprehensive information on a wide range of public opinion and public
policy issues.
