The Center for Public Justice is an American Christian think tank which undertakes to bring a Christian worldview to bear on policy issues.[1]
It is rooted in the Christian democratic political tradition of such Dutch figures as Guillaume Groen van Prinsterer, Abraham Kuyper, and Herman Dooyeweerd. James W. Skillen, who served as the organization's first Executive Director (1981–2000) and later President (2000–2008) has had an important influence on the organization.[1] Since July 2011 the organization has been headed by CEO Stephanie Summers.[2] Gideon Strauss, a former interpreter with South Africa's Truth and Reconciliation Commission and adviser to the group that drafted the 1996 Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, was CEO prior to Summers and presently is a Senior Fellow.[3]
