Spotlights and Recognition

New Award Funding

Congratulations to Assistant Research Professor Elizabeth Day on receiving a grant from the William T Grant Foundation! The goal of the project is to build new relationships across the U.S. between researchers and their local policymakers on topics affecting youth and families in their districts. We hope to increase both evidence-informed policies and greater civic engagement using an educational approach (not lobbying or advocating) so that we can - at least in a small way - help (re)build trust in science and scientists.
