About Sara Amadon

Equity-focused researcher focused on understanding how social policies can improve the lives of children and families. Policy areas of expertise include child care, pre-K, and housing. My work has examined the links between pre-K quality and later skills, the long-term effects of pre-K, how moving matters for kids, and whether and when neighborhoods matter. Specialties: Quantitative methods and data analysis, longitudinal research, SEM, HLM, teaching, early childhood, policy analysis, quasi-experimental methods. Excited to be building skills in community engaged research.
