The 2024 Abternship is in full swing! A few weeks ago, we welcomed our 2024 cohort of interns to a team of Bold Thinkers across the organization. The group recently joined a session with Abt’s President & CEO, Kathleen Flanagan, who spoke about her illustrious career and offered advice on building valuable connections during the internship. Our Chief Global Equity Officer, Roslyn M. Brock (She/Her) also met with the interns and emphasized the importance of understanding social and economic disparities and centering equity through our work. The Abternship is a great learning opportunity where you can Make a World of Difference! #CareersatAbt #BoldThinkers #Internship #WorldatAbt

🌟 Reflecting on #NRCEC2024 🌟 Last week at NRCEC, I had a great time learning more about the ongoing research in early childhood. Unsurprisingly, a major topic discussed throughout the conference was the early childhood workforce and issues related to compensation, mental health and well-being, recruitment and retention. In the opening plenary, Sara Mead from the District of Columbia’s Office of the State Superintendent of Education, underscored the urgent need for a revenue strategy to support equitable compensation. Her insights highlighted the importance of financing to support workforce stability and quality early childhood education. #EarlyChildhoodEducation #WorkforceDevelopment #NRCEC2024

Did you know? Direct Rental Assistance (DRA) is an alternative approach to providing rental housing assistance. Instead of paying landlords directly, the subsidies go to households to pay their landlords. Abt’s housing experts, Jill Khadduri, Hannah Thomas, and Meryl Finkel, Ph.D. describe how this approach can bolster autonomy, and why rigorous testing of DRA could inform the future of housing assistance programs: https://lnkd.in/eHs3kuWA
