Advancing work on the RWJF Innovations in Value From Low-Resource Communities program, 2016-2017

The Foundation's initiative, Innovations in Value from Low-Resource Communities, was designed to fund evaluations of innovative approaches to improving value in low-resource communities and populations.This project will extend the work of Mathematica Policy Research in supporting the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation's selection of up to 10 evaluation grantees under the Innovations in Value From Low-Resource Communities. The original project spent the allotted funds earlier than expected due to an enormous response to the program's call for proposals. This extension will continue to support Mathematica during the final round of grantee selection and through the first year of the project by monitoring and reporting on the program. Mathematica will review and synthesize information from the evaluation grantees' progress reports and interim evaluation reports.
