The Institute for Higher Education Policy (IHEP) manages a variety of initiatives to inform key decision makers who shape legislation and support economic and social development. These initiatives incorporate a variety of resources and tools, such as research reports, convenings, and online media, to educate and drive national, state, local, and institutional efforts in support of education reform for underrepresented students.
To achieve stronger educational outcomes for underserved students, we align IHEP’s initiatives with our four policy priorities: Access & Success, Affordability & Finance, Accountability & Transparency, and Critical Communities & Institutions.
