Overview

In 2020, the Cooper Center published its five-year strategic plan: Reimagining Public Service, which was inspired by our core values of access, collaboration, communities and impact. The plan not only helped us to develop a clear path forward, but clarified the strategic focus for our Center's work, which is to ensure that our work matters...that it makes a tangible difference in communities across the Commonwealth.
