| Description | Public Agenda's mission is to help the nation's leaders better understand the public's point of view and to help average citizens better understand critical policy issues. Its particular expertise lies in crafting research studies that explore different points of view with empathy and probe beneath surface responses to capture the public's concerns and assumptions. Public Agenda employs such research techniques as one-on-one interviews with experts, focus groups, and specifically-designed random telephone and mail surveys to produce its reports. In addition, it uses both traditional print as well as electronic media to disseminate each report's findings to experts, policy makers, journalists, academics, and the general public. | Description |

| Description | Research: Public Agenda's in-depth research on how citizens think about policy forms the basis for extensive citizen education work. Our citizen education materials are used by media outlets and community groups across the country to further Public Agenda's mission. The materials frequently utilize an approach called Citizen Choicework, i.e., looking at a range of options for addressing an important public issue. This approach is also utilized in many Public Engagement programs (see below). Since Public Agenda Online was launched in September of 1997, it has become a well-used resource for journalists, researchers, students, and the general public and has garnered much praise for its balance and objectivity. | Description |

| Description | Public engagement: Public engagement, an essential and often missing ingredient in American public life, is an attempt to involve citizens more fully in the public policy process. Public Agenda's approach is shaped by an understanding of how the public sorts through difficult issues - the stages of public thinking - which often are out of sync with attitudes of leaders and experts. Public Agenda offers strategic planning workshops; public opinion research to plan public engagement initiatives; and technical assistance, including planning local initiatives, moderating town meetings, training local moderators, organizational consulting, research, and preparation of public engagement materials. | Description |
