About The Kenneth L. Maddy Institute:
The institute was established at California State University, Fresno in
1999 by the California Legislature in honor of State Senator Ken Maddy,
whose 28 years of public service demonstrated the successful application
of personal integrity, legislative know-how and bipartisanship to the
governance of the State of California.
The Maddy Institute mission includes providing non-partisan,
interdisciplinary and fact-driven analysis of public policy issues
impacting our region and state. The institute also provides practical
training for local officials and civic leaders, fellowships for Fresno
State students with local state and federal legislators, as well as
symposia and extension courses on a range of topics relating to public
policy and public administration.
