The offices of the Kentucky Long-Term Policy Research Center are located at 111 St. James Court in Frankfort. A map of the location is provided here. From I-64 take Exit 53A onto US 127 South. Turn left at the first stoplight onto Burlington Lane. Go through the 4-way stop and continue to the next left (St. James Court.) The building is the only one on the right at the end. The number “111” is located above the front door and a flagpole stands in front of the building.

The Kentucky Long-Term Policy Research Center was created by the Kentucky General Assembly during the 1992 regular session. See our Enacting Legislation for more details.

“The Long-Term Policy Research Center will serve as a catalyst to change the way decisions are made in government by providing decisionmakers a broader context in which to make decisions, taking into consideration the long-term implications of policy and critical trends and emerging issues which are likely to have a significant impact on the state.”

The Center is governed by a 21-member Board of Directors that includes four appointees from the executive branch, six from the legislative branch, and 11 at-large members who represent universities, local governments, communities, and the private sector. Biographies of the current members are available on the Welcome Center Board of Directors page.
