The Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider completed its second year for physics with gold beam collisions at center of mass energy of 200 GeV per nucleon. An important component of the physics program is the acceleration and collisions of polarized proton beams at center of mass energies up to 500 GeV, luminosity of 2.1032 cm-2. sec-1 and beam polarization of 70%. The primary focus of the spin physics program is the study of the spin structure of the nucleon. Particular emphasis is on the polarized gluon structure function through direct photon production and inclusive jet production as well as the study of flavor separated quark and antiquark structure functions from W+/- production. In this presentation I will discuss our progress in acceleration and preservation of polarized proton beams at high energies and the expected physics reach using the installed STAR and PHENIX detectors.
