Sightline Institute is an independent think tank with a mission to create a healthy, lasting prosperity in Cascadia.

We monitor the Northwest's progress with the Cascadia Scorecard; identify important systemic solutions; and make our research and related tools widely available to the region's engaged citizens, media, and leaders, so they can build the case for sustainability in their communities.
