About the chapter
Finger Lakes SSN started in 2014 and includes members from Cornell University, Ithaca College, and Syracuse University. Although Finger Lakes SSN is focused on producing policy-relevant research on many topics, members do policy-relevant work on inequality, poverty, family, criminal justice, and child welfare.
