The Center for the Study of the Presidency and Congress (CSPC), founded in 1965, is a non-partisan, non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization. The Center's mission is to: promote leadership in the Presidency and Congress that generates innovative solutions to current national challenges; preserve the historic memory of the Presidency by identifying critical lessons from the successes and failures of such leadership; draw on a wide range of talent and find better ways to organize an increasingly compartmentalized federal government; and educate and inspire the next generation of America's leaders so that they incorporate civility, inclusiveness and character into their public and private lives and discourse.
