About MDRC
MDRC was founded in 1974 on the idea that high-quality research and evidence can play a vital role in reducing poverty and expanding opportunity in the United States. We hold true to that vision today. A nonprofit, nonpartisan organization, MDRC conducts rigorous studies of programs and policies that affect people with low incomes, actively disseminates the lessons to policymakers and practitioners, and works directly with programs and agencies to help improve their effectiveness and efficiency.
