Keystone Research Center

The Keystone Research Center conducts original research, produces reports, and promotes public dialogue to address important economic and civic problems, proposes new policies to help resolve those problems, and engages in strategic communications, advocacy, and coalition building to advance those policies.

The Keystone Research Center was created in 1995 to broaden public discussion on strategies to achieve a more prosperous and equitable Pennsylvania economy.

Established in 1996, Keystone operates through the collaborative efforts of Pennsylvania citizens drawn from academia, labor, religious, and business organizations. Rather than simply outlining Pennsylvania’s problems, the Keystone Research Center is dedicated to using research and collaboration to propose workable policy alternatives.

Since its creation, Keystone Research Center has become a leading source of independent analysis of Pennsylvania’s economy and public policy.
