Its work also seeks to enrich civic and community discussion around public education.

Based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, it operates as a mid-sized research nonprofit within the Research Services field. In May 2026, Research for Action partnered with the University of Texas at Austin to conduct a five-year study examining the impact, cost, and implementation of two policies, with collaboration led by Lauren Schudde.
