Yesterday, I successfully defended my dissertation and became Dr. Sabrina Klein.

This one is for the little rural girl from Selma, Oregon inside of me, with big dreams, big questions, and a big determination. You did it.

@therealjgutz @MDRC_News Thank you so much love!!!! Your support means the world to me 🥹

[Sabrina Klein, Ph.D. @brinabird]

Thrilled to share our new National R&D Center focused on rural postsecondary access and success. This is a dream come true. My heart & soul went into this proposal. Grateful to our @MDRC_News team. The little rural girl from the mountains of Selma, Oregon inside me is so proud.

We're excited to announce our new rural R&D center, led by Dr. Alexander Mayer (@MDRC_News). This $10 million investment supports research on improving access to and outcomes in postsecondary education for students from rural K-12 districts. Learn more: https://t.co/lbqm9pTHtt

BREAKING: The Supreme Court ruled today that cities can punish unhoused people for sleeping in public, even if they have nowhere else to go. 

We cannot arrest our way out of homelessness.

[Sabrina Klein, Ph.D. @brinabird]

I spent most of my childhood homeless in Southern Oregon. I’m flooded with emotions about today’s decision. Criminalizing homeless is not the answer.

[tracy rosenthal @tracyrosenthal_]

I met many homeless people in Grants Pass—with jobs that didn’t add up to rent, with disabilities or such trauma they couldn’t work. I know the faces of the people the Supreme Court just said should be in jail for sleeping outside. Now every city can do the same.

@mmccormack +1 I support this policy

My Mumpa, you’ve always been my mom and my dad. You’ve always been my everything. You sacrificed so much for me, taught me how to fight for my dreams and to never give up even in our hardest circumstances. I love you endlessly, you deserve the world.

Happy 70th Birthday!

New! My colleagues and I share findings from a case study about green jobs training in NYC!

[Career and Technical Ed at MDRC @CTE_MDRC]

#GreenJobs are growing in demand, but #CTE training organizations struggle to enroll an adequate number of students to meet labor demands. MDRC uses #NYC as a case study for investigating the issues that may affect green workforce development efforts: https://t.co/h2vjPaUF38

[Sabrina Klein, Ph.D. @brinabird]

@MarianaBat thank you friend ❤️

[Sabrina Klein, Ph.D. @brinabird]

My husband was at the parade in the general area of the shooter and I am so grateful he got home safe today. My heart breaks for the victims. This is a horrific day in our city.

Students from rural areas tend to enroll in #college and complete their degrees at lower rates (https://t.co/7VLov0QNES). To better serve these students, @UChicago created #STARS--an intentional college pathway for #rural high schoolers: https://t.co/LGN2JsPIYB

Highly recommend checking out this engaging and timely piece by our CTE center director, Rachel Rosen! #CTE

[Career and Technical Ed at MDRC @CTE_MDRC]

New from MDRC: we have a “once in a lifetime opportunity” to train the next generation of students for a more #sustainable economy. Green #CTE pathways can connect young people to in-demand jobs that are high paying and environmentally conscious: https://t.co/E7iM5fbkF5
