About the Institute for Strategic Policy Solutions Endowment Fund
Advancing academic excellence, civic engagement, and public understanding through solutions-directed, nonpartisan public policy programs.
The Institute for Strategic Policy Solutions (ISPS) at St. Petersburg College serves the Florida College System through high-quality, solutions-directed, nonpartisan public policy programs designed to strengthen civic understanding and community engagement.
ISPS supports students and community members by creating opportunities for education, dialogue, and connection around the purpose of government and the critical issues shaping our communities.
The Institute for Strategic Policy Solutions Endowment Fund provides long-term, reliable support so ISPS can continue expanding public discourse, student engagement, and community-focused learning for years to come.

Why an Endowment Matters
ISPS’ mission includes promoting and facilitating student engagement, enhancing civic and community involvement, serving as a center for public discourse, and identifying economic initiatives that benefit communities across Florida.
