First-Gen Researchers
First generation college graduates or those whose parents do not have four-year degrees can gather to create a space to discuss this aspect of diversity. Join the Community to make new connections, discuss your own perspectives on policy research as a first generation researcher and find ways APPAM can continue to support this group.
