The Poverty & Race Research Action Council (PRRAC) is a civil rights policy organization that aims to address structural inequality and disrupt the systems that disadvantage low-income people of color. Founded in 1989, PRRAC connects advocates with social scientists working on race and poverty issues to promote a research-based advocacy strategy. They collaborate with major civil rights, civil liberties, and anti-poverty groups to develop informed policies and strategies to combat racial and economic disparities.

PRRAC offers a range of publications, including their renowned Poverty & Race Journal, policy briefs, and advocacy resources. They also organize events, such as the National Conference on Housing Mobility, to foster dialogue and knowledge-sharing among stakeholders. Through their research-driven approach, PRRAC is dedicated to advancing fair housing, school diversity, environmental justice, and other initiatives aimed at creating a more equitable society
