We would like to congratulate Meghan McDoniel in receiving the SRCD Pre-doctoral State Policy Fellowship for the 2018-2019 academic year!

The Pre-doctoral State Policy Fellowship aims to provide participants with firsthand experience in state policymaking, program implementation, and evaluation, while also providing state executive branch agencies greater access to child development research expertise. Fellows can be involved in bridging research and policy through a variety of responsibilities.  Depending on the specific placement, responsibilities might involve, for example, helping to inform the design of a new state pre-kindergarten program or working to strengthen an existing program; assisting in the planning or implementation of policy initiatives to improve quality; or assisting in the design, conduct, or analysis of a program evaluation.
