On Thursday, February 4, RSF president Sheldon Danziger, Visiting Scholar Ron Mincy (Columbia University), and RSF grantee Lawrence Mead (New York University) will join a number of other experts on a panel discussion hosted by the Ford Foundation and Spotlight on Poverty and Opportunity. The panel will discuss findings from a report, “Opportunity, Responsibility, and Security,” which was released by the Brookings Institution and the American Enterprise Institute in December 2015.

The report outlines a comprehensive, non-partisan plan for addressing poverty and economic mobility and was authored by an interdisciplinary working group of researchers, including Danziger, Mincy, Mead, and a number of other RSF scholars and grantees. The report can be downloaded in full from both the Brookings Institution and the American Enterprise Institute.

The February 4 panel discussion will take place at the Ford Foundation from 9am-12pm EST and is free to the public. Spotlight on Poverty and Opportunity will livestream the event from their site.
