The ARPI is focused on driving innovation in public systems. We anchor our work on data, research and analysis, prioritizing models that show a high return on investment of public dollars.

In many of the areas of our work, including child welfare systems, mental health, juvenile justice and veterans systems, we have found that state and local policy, program and practices changes impact quality of life for the end user- our end goal.

These models can then be replicated at the national level, evaluated for their impact, adaptability and cost effectiveness.
