Primary Exempt PurposeWe're on a mission to improve data use in the social sector by connecting capacity with need for a thriving equitable social data ecosystem. We do this primarily through 2 programs: Our signature program which historically has included mostly graduate students participating in a summer Externship cohort experience - including 1:1 and cohort seminars and mental/emotional wellness supports - in which part- or full-time externs are matched with host social sector organizations to complete a research/data project, and community mentors with whom the extern has a shared lived experience to provide professional mentorship and relationship building; and Austin's Community-Engaged Research Course primarily for undergraduate Scholars of the Global Majority (i.e., BIPOC scholars), designed and led in partnership with MEASURE, Huston-Tillotson University (Austin's HBCU and oldest institution of higher learning), and now Texas State University (a Hispanic Serving Institution).PrimaryExemptPurposeTxt
