Advancing research and scholarship to address social and policy challenges, and persistent inequalities is the central mission of this initiative.

Whether the research is local or global in scope, results of this collaborative research are shared with community research partners, and disseminated among scholars and policymakers with the goal of developing integrated solutions to pressing social needs and concerns, positively impacting communities and informing public policy.
