New RAND Study on Education

A new RAND Study provides a primer for using economics to help guide early childhood policy initiatives. "Such research could promote a reorientation of child and human services toward investment and prevention, moving away from the current system that seeks to “treat” problems that develop later in life, according to the report." More details about the report are available here, and the document (by M. Rebecca Kilburn and Lynn A. Karoly) is available here.
