High-quality evidence from reliable sources should play a critical role in designing policies for specific desired outcomes. Through our state collaborations, as well as projects to support individual state policy efforts, the Center produces more than 150 pieces of proprietary research evidence annually for policymakers.

Our work summarizes the evidence and effectiveness of interventions or policies designed to improve the health of the people they serve. We help decision makers address challenges with relevant, real-world information and insight, bringing clarity to the questions they must address.
