OPRE's Research and Evaluation Conference on Self-Sufficiency (#RECS2024) kicks off today! Looking forward to attending in-person after a few years of virtual RECS. On Thursday morning at 10, I'll be joining Owen Schochet, Daniel Litwok and Lauren Deutsch Stanton to present as part of a panel on "Estimating How Contextual Changes Affect Program Impacts: Lessons from Conducting RCTs During the COVID-19 Pandemic." We will discuss empirical methods to investigate the extent to which large contextual changes (like a once-in-a-lifetime pandemic) within well-designed RCTs might influence the impact estimates derived from those studies. How should we interpret data that are collected within these changed contexts? Can we responsibly draw conclusions about program efficacy beyond these contexts? Join us to learn more.
