Research

The Caruthers Institute, a nonpartisan think-tank that conducts research, crafts solutions and leads advocacy for the purpose of data-driven social change. Based in St. Petersburg, Florida, the Institute's studies inform data-driven decision-making with state and local policies, laws and systems in numerous states. We bring together the best thinking, from assembling top experts to conducting comprehensive research, to solve tough social problems. While we conduct studies on various issues, the focus of our work is on juvenile justice (arrests for common youth misbehavior and teen auto theft), obesity (marketing of unhealthy food to children), and education (K-12 foundations). The Institute believes important policy decisions should be made based upon data – not ideology, partisanship or political influence. We provide a rare role in public policy research – honest-brokers who advocate for data-based solutions while oblivious to politics. The Institute bears my name for transparency, not ego.
