Institute for Social Policy and Understanding (ISPU)

On October 1st, we published American Muslim Poll 2020: Amid Pandemic and Protest, the fifth annual poll of attitudes and policy preferences on issues concerning American Muslims across faith and non-faith groups. (And there's still time to register for our webinar on civic engagement today!) This nationally representative survey includes groundbreaking data on Americans who are Muslim, Jewish, Protestant, Catholic, white Evangelicals, and non-affiliated. This research will inform journalists, policymakers, advocates, organizers, educators, and the general public for years to come.

Friends,

Are you ready to run, walk (or just watch) the 2020 Virtual Gaza Run/Walk + Digital Festival?

After the success of our first Pittsburgh “4K4GazaKids” last October we were hoping to expand this year’s walk to a regional event. Unfortunately, the Covid 19 virus has put an end to those plans, but at the same time it has opened up an exciting new opportunity for us.
