The Center for Public Partnerships and Research (CPPR) at the University of Kansas partners with communities, government, and nonprofit organizations across the country to optimize the well-being of children and families.

CPPR brings a multidisciplinary team of researchers, data scientists and systems-thinkers, to catalyze change and make measurable improvements. In addition to depth of experience, CPPR is valued for contributing a broad array of unique resources and for applying strategic foresight in areas like early childhood care and education, public health, youth development, child and family well-being, and future-focused leadership. CPPR empowers people to overcome systemic challenges through innovation and sustainable partnerships.
