CLPR Working Papers

In affiliation with ISSI, the Center for Latino Policy Research (CLPR) was established in 1989 in response to the policy challenges of limited educational and economic opportunities facing the Chicano and Latino population. CLPR's current research interest focuses on immigration, access to higher education, and political participation. CLPR also provides public policy internships for undergraduates as well as mini-grant/research opportunities for graduate students.
