Join The Louisiana Institute of Public Policy & Politics! The slideshow includes many highlights of our activities.

The Institute is a non-profit organization that gives participants an inside look at Louisiana government and poltics in an intimate, casual, non-academic setting. Due to the overwhelmingly positive response from the participants, we have decided to expand the membership and include a monthly "Opinion Leader Forum" and several social functions to compliment the quarterly seminar series. If you are interested in politics and government policy these events are 'must attend' activities.

Over the past year the Institute has hosted 3 seminar series: A Political Campaign Academy, A Public Policy Summit and an Advocacy & Issue Management Training Seminar Series. The Faculty of the Institute includes many of the most knowledgeable and powerful players in Louisiana politics and government:
