The MDRC Gueron Scholars Program: Building Career Pathways into Policy Research

In recognition of our 50th anniversary, we are highlighting examples of where the work of MDRC and its partners is making a difference.

The Judith Gueron Scholars Program seeks to expand opportunities for young professionals from groups that are traditionally underrepresented in the education and social policy research communities. Since 2019, MDRC has hosted more than 50 Gueron Scholars in paid internships for undergraduate and master’s students and fellowships for doctoral candidates.
