Center for Inclusive Democracy

throughout California and the nation. The CCEP’s work supports inclusive civic engagement as a critical factor in overcoming disparities in social and economic wellbeing, including outcomes in education, health and employment. CCEP research also helps explore non-traditional measures of civic engagement, particularly among groups historically underrepresented in our civic and political institutions. The CCEP has become a go-to source for electoral and civic engagement research, including the examination of nationally relevant election reforms such as automatic voter registration, online voter registration and vote centers. Legislators, public agencies, advocates, researchers, media (state and national) and community leaders use its pioneering research to track disparities and opportunities in civic participation by place and population. The CCEP partners with non-partisan civic engagement groups to increase political participation among young voters and other underrepresented groups. The CCEP utilizes Geographic Information Systems (GIS) to carry out spatial analysis, highlighting hotspots of civic engagement by place and population. The CCEP also produces a policy brief series highlighting the role played by underrepresented groups, such as California’s Latino, Asian and youth electorate. The CCEP welcomes inquiries and partnerships on issues regarding civic participation in California and beyond.
