Research & Policy Brief
The Research & Policy Brief series highlights research and policy-relevant work on a variety of important community development topics. Global Development publications are designed to provide our readers with research-based, policy-relevant information to help foster dialogue at the local, regional and state-level, and to inform public and private decision-making around critical community and economic development issues.
The Research & Policy Briefs are written by university faculty, state agency representatives, and CCE Educators, among other partners and collaborators.
The Research & Policy Briefs are free for public reproduction with proper accreditation.
