Demos is a non-partisan public policy research and advocacy organization founded in 2000. Headquartered in New York City, Demos works with advocates and policymakers around the country in pursuit of four overarching goals:
• a more equitable economy with widely shared prosperity and opportunity;
• a vibrant and inclusive democracy with high levels of voting and civic engagement;
• an empowered public sector that works for the common good;
• and responsible U.S. engagement in an interdependent world.
Carol will give a brief overview of Demos’ programs, talk about some of the latest projects they’re working on in each program, and spend some time focusing on their work in California helping to reframe the debate on the role of government and California’s fiscal crisis.
