    The Government Performance Portfolio within the Program

    Pew's government performance work identifies and advances effective approaches to help solve complex challenges at all levels of government in the United States. The portfolio's work can be traced back to our founders' early efforts to improve the lives of Americans by supporting efforts that promoted health, civic engagement, and democratic ideals. Today, we conduct research on emerging topics, develop data-driven reports, and highlight innovative, non-partisan approaches in addressing complex problems at the federal, state, and local levels as well as the interplay that can occur between jurisdictions. Current initiatives focus on health, fiscal and economic policy, and safety and justice, and take into account significant trends such as evolving technologies, and the increasing racial and ethnic diversity in the United States population. Our teams explore and advance effective, evidence-based policies using credible, timely, and accessible research, assessing public support for change, identifying approaches that have proved successful elsewhere, and bringing together diverse perspectives to find common ground. We work in collaboration with organizations that share our commitment to rigorous research, measurable results, and public service, and we focus on developing durable policy change. In addition, our teams use strategic outreach and dissemination to ensure that good information is widely communicated to decision-makers, media, influential stakeholders, and the public.

    Courts and Communities

    The courts and communities project works to strengthen policies and processes that dictate how civil and criminal courts manage their dockets and handle cases-the nuts and bolts of how courts do business. We envision reforms that enable people to participate more effectively in court processes, resolve their matters more expeditiously, and avoid unnecessary or unwarranted costs or penalties. In so doing, the reforms will focus court staff attention on cases where their skills and knowledge are best applied. And, systemically, they will enable court systems to administer justice in a way that better supports safety, stability, and well-being of the communities they serve. Position OverviewThe principal associate for policy, courts and communities, helps state and local courts improve how they serve communities, including how courts address families and caregiving, how courts can better resolve high volume disputes like traffic and debt collection cases, and how courts can obtain more stable funding and reduce their reliance on fines and fees. Reporting to the manager, policy, courts and communities, the principal associate will focus on improving court policies through partnerships and court rule, budgetary, administrative, and/or legislative reform.Located in Pew's Washington, DC, office, this position will participate in Pew's core in-office days on Tuesdays and Wednesdays and will have flexibility to work from home the remainder of each week. Candidates must be legally authorized to work in the country for which they are seeking employment without visa sponsorship.
