Joel Berg Named CAP Visiting Fellow

Joel was recently named a Visiting Fellow at Washington, DC’s prestigious Center for American Progress, a nonpartisan research and educational institute dedicated to promoting a strong, just and free America that ensures opportunity for all.

Founded in 2003, CAP works to find progressive and pragmatic solutions to significant domestic and international problems.  The organization is headed by John Podesta, former Chief of Staff for President Bill Clinton and co-chair of President Barack Obama’s transition.  CAP opened a Los Angeles office in 2007.

CAP’s policy priorities for U.S. domestic issues center on building opportunities for all Americans to share in the American Dream. Their work concentrates on the core engines that drive equal opportunity and shared prosperity—education, health care, government oversight, poverty, and women’s rights.
