Making a Difference
The Harry S Truman School of Public Affairs advances the study and practice of governance in Missouri, the nation, and the world. Truman School programs inform policymaking and governance, educate for ethical leadership, and facilitate public dialogue on critical issues of public affairs. Like the president for whom we are named, we believe that public service can make a difference in the lives of people and communities.
