SPN Awards

State Policy Network endeavors to inspire and raise the level of effectiveness of affiliate members so that they can be forces for the public good. One way SPN accomplishes that goal is through recognizing and celebrating the state think tanks, allied organizations, and Network leaders who are pioneering new solutions and avenues toward lasting social change, personal freedom, and opportunity at the state and local level.
