Scott W. Allard is the Daniel J. Evans Endowed Professor of Social Policy at the Evans School of Public Policy & Governance at the University of Washington. He currently serves as the Associate Dean for Research and Engagement.
Scott W. Allard's research focuses on poverty and inequality, food security, and safety net utilization. His work examines links between place, poverty, and the accessibility of early childhood, safety net and human service programs.
Over the past thirty years, Scott W. Allard has worked closely with research centers and think tanks. He also works to translate his research findings for broader audiences, media outlets, and opportunities for evidence-informed policy or practice.
This book examines the shifting geography of poverty in metropolitan America, where suburban poverty has risen over the past 30 years, and discusses implications for the antipoverty safety net.
This book traces the growing reliance of the antipoverty safety net on human service programs, exploring spatial mismatches between the location of at-risk households and where providers are located.
The Washington Elections Project has two components. One provides public-use data files about voter demographics, another seeks to improve voter experience with vote-by-mail in Washington State.
