Public Innovators, a nonpartisan Root Cause initiative, supports a new wave of government leaders at the city, state, and federal levels who identify and continuously support the most effective, efficient, and sustainable solutions to pressing social problems.

Public Innovators advances its mission through three core activities:

• Thinking and Dialogue
• Knowledge Sharing and Community Building
• Practice and Institution Building

Public Innovators builds off two Root Cause Reports: Social Entrepreneurship and Government: A New Breed of Entrepreneurs Developing Solutions to Social Problems and Advancing Social Entrepreneurship: Recommendations for Policy Makers and Government Agencies.
