The Russell Sage Foundation seeks applications for its Affordable Care Act research grant program.
This initiative aims to support innovative social science research on the social, economic and political effects of the Affordable Care Act of 2010. Preference will be given to analyses that address questions about the effects of the reform on outcomes, such as financial security and family economic well-being, supply and demand, participation in other public programs, family and children’s outcomes and differential effects by age, race, ethnicity, nativity or disability status.
Preference will also be given to research that examines the political effects of the implementation of the new law, including changes in views about government, support for future government policy changes or the impact on policy development outside of health care.
