Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities

Grant Year: 2024

William Evans and James Sullivan will direct the research program of a policy lab focused on efforts to increase economic opportunities for disadvantaged families. They will evaluate programs sponsored by nonprofit organizations in a wide array of areas, such as helping students earn high school diplomas, supporting first-generation college students, assisting families at risk of homelessness, and increasing economic self-sufficiency. The policy lab’s findings will appear in a series of reports, articles, policy briefs, and briefings.
