Our Mission
The PACS mission is intentionally broad; reflecting the founders’ desire to focus scholarly attention on questions surrounding philanthropy, civil society, and social change. PACS-sponsored courses and seminars engage students and scholars from across campus in discussing core issues facing the sector, building a common frame of reference that enables conversation across disciplines. This mission also provides the Center with the flexibility to attract faculty and students with diverse and ever-changing research interests.
PACS is a program of the Institute for Research in the Social Sciences and the Haas Center for Public Service.
