RISE3 Publishes Data-Driven Reports from Partnership with Obama White House

Two reports from BCSSW faculty members Tiziana Dearing, Summer Hawkins, and David Takeuchi were released during an event on campus that featured speakers from the Obama administration team, as well as leading organizations across Boston.

The reports, Race and Income Equity in Childcare and Race, Poverty, and Equity in Neighborhood Transportation, are the products of a months-long data analysis conducted with the Obama Administration’s Office of Science and Technology Partnerships (OSTP) that was designed to investigate how race, income, and places affect access to opportunity. RISE³ was among 30 programs that worked together under the auspices of the Project and was the only academic partner to collaborate with Obama’s team.
