New issue of Poverty & Race!

December 16, 2021 by

This special issue of Poverty & Race brings together a variety of research evidence, policy expertise, and student perspectives to the issue of school and housing segregation and the interconnections between the sectors. For years, social scientists have generated important scholarship on the topic of segregation in education and housing, but the use of this research evidence in policymaking has been limited at best. We hope that this issue will provide a snapshot of some of the important progress being made in the field today. An overview of the articles and a table of contents are included below.
