J-PAL North America's Social Policy Research Initiative (SPRI), supports randomized impact evaluations of innovative social programs and policies that can provide insights for learning which policies work best and why.
The Social Policy Research Initiative (SPRI) hosts a semi-annual Request for Proposals (RFP) focused on randomized evaluations in any sector that contribute to J-PAL’s mission of reducing poverty by ensuring that policy is informed by rigorous evidence. This could include randomized evaluations in North America across a broad range of sectors including climate change, consumer finance, criminal legal reform, education, government efficiency, political economy, housing stability, etc.
