FYI Seems like a good opportunity for MA students looking to work for the City. ................................................................................................... I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out on behalf of The Mayor's Office for Economic Opportunity<https://www.nyc.gov/site/opportunity/index.page> to share a position we have open on our Poverty Research Team. The Mayor’s Office for Economic Opportunity (NYC Opportunity) helps the City apply evidence and innovation to reduce poverty and increase equity. Within NYC Opportunity, the Poverty Research Team generates the alternative poverty measure for New York City, a keystone in innovative, rigorous data analysis. The Poverty Research Team applies data analytics to build an accurate description of who is in poverty, identify some of the leading causes for being in poverty, and measure how citywide programs work to offset the poverty rate. This data allows us to better target anti-poverty initiatives and design more effect metrics in measuring success. We are currently seeking a qualified candidate to fill a permanent, full-time Senior Research Associate<https://buildwithnyc.github.io/srresearchassoc-2024.html> and would appreciate you sharing with your network. Candidates can apply through the job posting link. Please reach out to the Director of Poverty Research; Jihyun Shin at JShin@opportunity.nyc.gov with any questions. ______________________________________________________ Professor Ryan C.
