Overview
This grant to Stanford University will support the creation of a comprehensive linked panel, which will be built as part of the Data Linkage Infrastructure program within the Census Bureau. It will be done in three sections: (a) discussions on the technical steps that need to be completed to build out the tax side of this infrastructure; (b) identification of the various uses of the new panel; and (c) a layout of the costs. In building the country’s first comprehensive linked panel, merging data from censuses, tax records, schools, and other administrative sources, the capacity for research and evidence-based policy would be made possible. The panel will improve capacity to examine labor market processes, long-run program effects, and intergenerational program effects, among other important trends.

Policy Analysis for California Education (PACE) is a nonpartisan policy and research center housed at Stanford University. It researches and analyzes education policy issues pertaining to California’s K-12 education system, bridging the gap between research and policy. This grant will help PACE produce relevant analysis and research, which can be used to better inform California education policy development and guide state and local decision making.

SPARQ, a research center at Stanford University, seeks to reduce societal disparities and social divides using behavioral science.
