The Southwest Voter Research Institute is
an international tax-exempt, nonprofit, nonpartisan organization that conducts
research which is used to improve the level of political participation
of Latinos. The Institute monitors the voting patterns and opinions of
Latinos and their community leaders, provides expert testimony in vote
dilution lawsuits, studies the impact of public policies on minority communities,
and shares this information with elected officials so they can respond
appropriately as responsible and well informed policy makers.
The Institute maintains several key programs
including: Political Database; Litigation Support; Polling; Public Policy;
the Latin America Project; 1990 Redistricting; Publishing; and Economic
Development.
Publications:
The Publishing Program disseminates results
of Institute research to Latino leaders, elected officials, other researchers
and the general public |
