Independence Institute

The mission of the Independence Institute is to empower individuals and to educate citizens, legislators, and opinion makers about public policies that enhance personal and economic freedom.

The Future Leaders Program trains qualified candidates for a lifetime of influence in the center right movement. We match our Future Leaders with a policy center where they learn how to effect change using a variety of different tools and strategies including in-depth research, policy analysis, academic writing, commentary, and behind the scenes support all through a free market lens.

In addition, our Future Leaders get to enjoy a number of different cultural outings, including local museums, seasonal activities, and meetings with key local leaders
