The Adler Institute on Social Exclusion is the first of the Adler School's three planned Institutes for Social Change. It was created in the fall of 2005 to advance integration of the concept of "social exclusion" into U.S. public policy discourse and to serve as a key institutional vehicle for the pursuit of the School's vision to promote social justice.

The Adler Institutes for Social Change promote social justice through applied research, public awareness and community outreach by:

• Working in partnership with local governments and agencies in policy-making;

• Training with agencies toward building greater capacities for meeting the needs of the underserved and disenfranchised; and

• Designing ways to mobilize resources and bring stakeholders together to focus their common interests on the well-being of people in our communities.

The creation of the Institutes is borne from the fundamental belief that psychology's greatest benefits occur when our profession is practiced in collaboration with others in the community.
