Founded in 1974, MDRC is committed to improving the lives of people with low incomes. We design promising new interventions, evaluate existing programs, and provide technical assistance to build better programs.
MDRC develops evidence about solutions to some of the nation’s most difficult problems. Explore our projects and variety of products, including publications, videos, podcast episodes, and resources for researchers and practitioners.
We evaluate strategies and interventions designed to help students from low-income backgrounds succeed in and complete college. We also help colleges and higher education government agencies use evidence to improve programs and practices.
