The Abraham Lincoln Center for Leadership and Public Policy will provide an intellectual environment to encourage research and study into leadership theory, ethical practices, and public policy making. The Center seeks to raise public awareness of the life and legacy of Abraham Lincoln and inspire civic engagement through Lincoln’s enduring example of values-based leadership. As we advance our mission, the Center will promote the leadership and policymaking skills and practical values of Abraham Lincoln and support educational and research opportunities for students, teachers, and emerging scholars.
