Our team wanted to empower people to make sense of the vast amount of information and to make more informed decisions. 19 and Me helps quantify people’s risk of contracting COVID-19 and visualize how behaviors, such as practicing social distancing, handwashing, and wearing personal protective equipment, can change people’s risk level.

In the United States, 8 out of 10 COVID-19 deaths reported have been among adults ages 65 and older, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Hosting our own hackathon was a chance to contribute to the COVID-19 response, and an opportunity to build new relationships with staff we don’t typically work with, promote the ideas of others, and encourage staff to leverage their creativity to think about problems.

Behind the scenes, technology has been playing an important role in developing models that are informing how public health officials track COVID-19 cases, respond to potential hot spots, and prepare policymakers for the next stages in our collective response.

In the United States, a range of social issues can negatively impact parenting, which in the worst of circumstances results in children entering the child welfare system.

For those of us who devote our lives to improving behavioral health care, the critical health care priorities of the COVID-19 pandemic raise concerns about increased unmet mental health and substance use service needs.

With the closure of school buildings fundamentally disrupting the way students receive services, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed the national conversation about education.

Paul Decker talks about the important steps Mathematica is taking to ensure we are fostering a deep commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion in our work and among our staff.

By showing how local data on social determinants of health compare to data from similar communities, we hope to encourage innovation, foster peer-to-peer learning, and identify promising practices.

Schools across the country have closed in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and states have cancelled their spring assessments. These cancellations mark the first interruption of the annual testing cycle since the No Child Left Behind Act passed nearly 20 years ago.

Although Mathematica might have limited expertise in infectious diseases like COVID-19, we have vast knowledge and experience with the policies and programs that can help our public health system and our economy recover from the unfolding impact this virus is having around the world.

Last year, Mathematica worked with researchers at Montana State University (MSU) to help assess the policy value of municipal wastewater testing, an innovative approach that can augment existing data by providing more rapid, cost-effective, and unbiased measures of drug use.

In this episode of On the Evidence, we interview attendees of the Second Annual Sadie T.M. Alexander Conference about the status of Black women in economics and what progress has been made to diversify the field since last year.

To better understand its schools’ contributions to students’ learning in the first four grades, the Maryland State Department of Education partnered with the Regional Educational Laboratory Mid-Atlantic to explore constructing a school-level growth measure for kindergarten to grade 3.

At Mathematica, we work collectively with partners across the country and around the globe to create a gender-equal world where women, girls, communities, and economies can thrive.

Attending a KIPP school led to a 10-13 percentage point improvement in the likelihood of enrolling in college.

In honor of Black History Month, Kimberlin Butler, director of foundation engagement, provides an account of Dr. Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander’s notable career as a Black economist and lawyer and how her legacy is inspiring a new generation of changemakers.

We believe the value of program monitoring is in iteration. By combining live program administrative data with vetted measures of socioeconomic status, we help clients and stakeholders understand alternative payment models and make important improvements.

In this episode of On the Evidence, Shane Kanady of SourceAmerica and Noelle Denny-Brown of Mathematica discuss findings from an evaluation of the Pathways to Careers program, which provides customized employment services to job seekers with significant disabilities.

More than a decade after I arrived at Mathematica, we have a thriving international research division and a portfolio of about 50 international projects for a wide range of clients. It’s been really exciting to see the international practice grow.

REL Mid-Atlantic explored whether kindergarten entry assessments can provide states and districts with a useful measure of progress toward proficient reading for cohorts of children.

Watch our video to see how Mathematica is supporting foundations to transform communities and catalyze social change.

Through my work, I’m often reminded of how alone I felt when I was little. How different I seemed from those around me. So, I’m careful not to make assumptions about the people I collaborate with, the people we’re trying to help, the data we’re collecting and analyzing, and other aspects of my work.

On this episode of On the Evidence, we talk about a federal experiment using home-delivered boxes packed with fruit, vegetables, and other shelf-stable foods selected by registered dieticians to address food insecurity among children in a rural part of the Chickasaw Nation territory in Oklahoma.

Research on chronically low-performing schools suggests that monitoring the implementation and progress of these schools’ improvement efforts can help them use limited resources more effectively.

Kimberlin Butler, director of foundation engagement, offers reflections about a convening that Mathematica hosted with The Denver Foundation. The event explored how cross-sector collaboration and data-informed practices can improve equity and outcomes for Denver metro communities.

Fewer than half of the nearly 170 million U.S. residents ages 25 to 64 have obtained a postsecondary degree or certificate. The statistics for adult students of color who have attained higher education are even lower.
