Our Commitment To You
VPAP is founded on the belief that a healthy democracy is powered by an informed electorate. In these uncertain times, the need for nonpartisan, fact-based information is more vital than ever.
We hope your family is safe and is adjusting the best it can to the disruption to daily routines and restrictions placed on economic activity.
VPAP remains open and is committed to its mission of elevating public understanding of Virginia government and politics. Working remotely, we continue to publish VaNews each weekday morning and to make complex government data easier to understand.
We appreciate your engagement in our work. We deeply thank our many financial supporters whose generosity makes our work possible. Our goal remains to prove ourselves worthy of your trust.
