BPC Project Description
The United States currently lacks a coordinated set of policies to support and develop our most precious asset—our people. BPC’s Human Capital Program equips Americans with the knowledge, skills, and tools they need to achieve at their full potential at all stages of life. From early childhood through classroom and career, BPC is bridging the partisan divide in support of America’s workers, families, and businesses.
The Human Capital program includes critical policy areas, such as early childhood, paid family leave, child welfare, education, immigration, business, and workforce development, to advance a talent strategy for the nation.
