  • Annual Report
    William T. Grant Foundation ANNUAL REPORT 2010 A The mission of the foundation is to support research to improve the lives of young people. A LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT In the past 40 years, research meant to improve the lives of young people has grown increasingly rigorous. Scholars and research funders now understand the importance of having solid theory and measures to anchor applied work. Research designs and methods have become more aligned to the questions. And data collection and analysis techniques and tools have all improved greatly. These methodological improvements are being leveraged in a number of important ways—there has been an explosion in the number of research irms and academic centers conducting high-quality applied work. In addition, multidisciplinary training programs, irst-rate journals, advocacy by intermediaries, improved peer review systems, and professional associations all help facilitate improved rigor. We have played a modest but productive role in many of these changes, while recognizing the leadership role played by federal research and executive branch agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of Education’s Institute for Education Sciences. The conundrum is that while there is an increased capacity to do rigorous, high- quality research, too little of the research evidence is relevant to practitioners and policymakers. There are exceptions—the changes made by Big Brothers/Big Sisters nationwide in response to the evaluation of their school-based mentoring program, and practitioners’ use of measures created by researchers to assess after-school program quality are two from our recent work.
