Grants to this Grantee
for support of the Policy Analysis for California Education program
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. (Strategy: K-12 Teaching and Learning)

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