Overview
The Pew Charitable Trusts is an independent nonprofit organization that draws on research and analysis to improve public policy, inform the public, and invigorate civic life. This grant supports the continuation and expansion of the Evidence Project, which will formalize a research funders’ network. The network cultivates information-sharing and collaboration between funders in different fields such as education, health, international development, and environment, to fill knowledge and resource gaps in the evidence use field. The goals of the network are to (a) facilitate learning between funders, (b) coordinate efforts and funding to identify and make progress on critical needs for the field, and (c) grow the field of evidence use and inspire more funders to support evidence initiatives. (Strategy: Evidence-Informed Policymaking)

for support of the Safe Spaces Project in Congress
This grant will expand earlier support for the Bipartisan House Chiefs of Staff Initiative to include the Bipartisan Senate Chiefs of Staff initiative, both operated under the longstanding Safe Spaces Project of the Pew Charitable Trusts. Both projects seek to provide a nonpartisan, nonpolitical “safe space” to foster bipartisan relationship building and best management practices for more informed and effective public policy. Programming is designed to help the chiefs improve their management and leadership skills and expose them to a wide variety of perspectives in a private and supportive environment that encourages cross-party relationships and greater understanding.
