President's Message

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the TRPI website.  Since 1985, TRPI has been conducting objective research that is accessible by a wide audience.  Our findings have inspired countless local, statewide, and national initiatives, whether it be in the areas of information technology, immigrant integration, housing, foreign policy, or education.
 
We are proud that our findings meet the standards of policy researchers and analysts - they have impacted school boards, state legislators, and the U.S. Congress.  Now, looking forward, we anticipate another twenty years of continued growth, as the U.S. Latino population continues to shift and its needs change.
 
Thank you for your interest in, and support of, TRPI.  As always, please feel free to contact us directly should you have any questions.
 
Sincerely,

Harry P. Pachon
President
The Tomas Rivera Policy Institute
Professor of Public Policy
