Advisory Board

As a department of Pratt Institute, the Pratt Center is governed by the Pratt Institute Board of Trustees. In addition, we have created another body that also provides guidance and is comprised of individuals from community and civic organizations, as well as academic and philanthropic institutions that are among the Pratt Center's current stakeholders.
