Welcome to CSD's State Assets Policy Project

The State Assets Policy Project is a CSD policy research initiative sponsored by the Ford, Charles Stewart Mott, Annie E. Casey, Ewing Marion Kauffman, F. B. Heron, and Levi Strauss Foundations. Supported by the Ford Foundation, CSD first initiated research on state and federal assets policies in 1999. With support from the Charles Stewart Mott, Annie E. Casey, and Levi Strauss Foundations, CSD's state policy initiative has recently evolved from a project primarily focused on state-level IDA policies into a major state assets policy research and development initiative--the State Assets Policy Project. The project's main objective is to better inform state and federal policymakers and advocates towards the creation of more inclusive assets policies by:

  • Compiling, analyzing, and reporting on IDA research from across the country;
  • Offering research-based technical assistance to states related to state-level assets policy development;
  • Informing state-level assets coalition-building efforts;
  • Convening meetings for state-level and federal-level assets policy experts to determine linkages between federal and state assets policies;
  • Producing assets policy reports and briefs;
  • Giving expert testimony on state assets policies;
  • Hosting annual state assets policy conferences; and
  • Creating a web-based state assets policy information center.
