The Citizen Policies Institute, nonprofit and nonpartisan, was founded in 2001 to advance the ideas outlined in Healing Politics (Steven Shafarman, 2000) and We the People (Steven Shafarman, 2001).

In support of programs whose goals include universal economic empowerment, community self-reliance, and the recognition of citizens as entitled and responsible stakeholders in the nation and commons, the Institute will conduct research on socioeconomic topics - e.g. poverty, taxation, corporate welfare, charity and volunteerism - and disseminate its findings through publishing and outreach to civic, academic and grassroots audiences and the media.

These efforts will support the work of advocacy groups promoting the mutually enabling Citizen Policies initiatives of guaranteed income and universal community service. We are still in the early stages of formation and fundraising. Please contact us if you are interested in these ideas.
