We seek to ensure that no one at MDRC is excluded or discriminated against on the basis of race, sex, or other protected classification. We vigorously enforce all antidiscrimination laws at the federal, state, and local levels. MDRC is a community in which everyone works together in support of our nonpartisan educational mission to design promising new interventions, evaluate existing programs, and build better policies and programs.
