This $387,267 National Science Foundation project grant supports research at the University of Washington under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences program (CFDA 47.075). The research will examine the effectiveness of multi-faceted antipoverty programs targeting entire low-income communities versus only the poorest households. Using randomized controlled trials across many communities, the researchers will assess impacts of the program on household poverty, income, wealth and women's empowerment two years after start. The findings aim to inform antipoverty program design in the U.S. and globally by shedding light on whether poverty causes are specific to households or common within communities. The September 2022 through February 2024 award period will allow evaluation of program economic and community impacts, as well as study the mechanisms through which any impacts occur.
