Alliance for Policy Research


Launched in April 2026, the Alliance for Policy Research (APR) brings together nearly 50 top policy experts and researchers to ensure that important decisions are informed by rigorous evidence and independent analysis.

Independent research.

Better decisions.

Stronger communities.

A better future.

The Moment

Federal research funding is declining, while the challenges facing our communities are growing more complex.

Our Response

APR unites nearly 50 leading policy experts and researchers and leverages innovative models and AI to deliver rigorous, high-quality research—faster and more efficiently.

Our Promise

More of every contribution goes directly to the research itself—advancing health, safety, and economic prosperity for Michigan and the nation.

Support the future of independent, evidence-based policy research for Michigan and beyond. 

Together, we can ensure that the best ideas—and the best evidence—guide our future.
