Education Outreach Manager

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation & Institute

The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute (RRPFI) is the sole nonprofit organization created by President Reagan charged
with advancing his legacy and principles
– limited government, individual liberty, economic opportunity, freedom and democracy, peace through strength, and national pride.

RRPFI is a non-partisan organization which sustains the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library and Museum in Simi Valley, CA, the Reagan Center for Public Affairs, the Presidential Learning Center, The Air Force One Pavilion, the award-winning Reagan Leadership Academy, and the Reagan Institute, which carries out the Foundation’s mission in Washington, D.C. The Reagan Library houses over 55 million pages of Gubernatorial, Presidential and personal papers and over 60,000 gifts and artifacts chronicling the lives of Ronald and Nancy Reagan.

It also serves as the final resting place of America’s 40th President and his First Lady. More information is available at reaganfoundation.org.

Education work at RRPFI stems from Ronald Reagan’s Farewell Address and his call for an “informed patriotism.” Our goal is to advance the legacy, guiding principles and life story of Ronald Reagan through five areas of focused programming – leadership, communication and discourse, digital programs, scholarships, and onsite programming.
