The grant encourages university-based research institutes, schools, and centers to grow existing research-practice partnerships with public agencies or nonprofit organizations to reduce inequality in youth outcomes. The grant also requires recipients to shift policies and incentives to value collaborative work and enhance the capacity of the partner organization to use evidence from research in its decision-making.
