IRS990/Desc0For the National Science Foundation, and in collaboration with a diverse cohort of entrepreneurial innovators from historically underrepresented communities, PPL is leading a project to co-create and pilot a series of tools and resources to meaningfully increase the nationwide involvement of underrepsented groups in accessing federal seed funding to bring their innovations to market.For the Scan Foundation, we are working on the Public Prospective Longitudinal Understanding Study of 65+ Adults (PPLUS65), an initiative to accelerate policy change and health-systems improvement for and with older Americans, especially those from low-income;rural or geographically underserved; and/or Black, Indigenous,and People of Color (BIPOC) communities. In mid-2024, we will launch a public platform to showcase research data collected and outputs produced, with a goal to help policymakers and systems leaders better incorporate older Americans' needs and preferences into social-scale programs.With SUNY's Office of Higher Education in Prison (OHEP)and CUNY's Institute for State and Local Governance (ISLG), we aimed to strengthen the support network that's available to formerly incarcerated students during reentry in New York City, by enhancing collaboration amongst higher education institutions and reentry service providers.
