State and Local Innovation Initiative Webinar

The J-PAL State and Local Innovation Initiative supports US state and local leaders in using randomized evaluations to generate new and widely applicable lessons about which programs work, which work best, and why.

On January 29 at 1:00 p.m. EST, J-PAL North America hosted a webinar to provide additional information about the State and Local Innovation Initiative, review the application process, and answer questions. The webinar featured Jessica Orozco, Program Manager at the County of Santa Clara Office of Supportive Housing, and James Sullivan, Professor of Economics at the University of Notre Dame and co-founder of the Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities, who discussed their partnership on an evaluation of a Rapid Re-Housing program for single adults in Santa Clara County.
