Contact IGPA Director
Robin Fretwell Wilson

IGPA engages a wide range of policy-oriented faculty across the University System who collaborate within focused working groups. Each of these groups is comprised of dozens of faculty researchers representing each of the three System universities. As questions arise in both the public sphere and academia, IGPA scholars use the latest research methods and work together to evaluate current affairs, ask tough questions, and identify possible solutions.

Members of the Substance Use Disorders and Behavioral Health Working Group engage in research aimed at finding effective and equitable policy solutions to reduce substance misuse and promote health and mental health.
