Research, evaluation, and data development. SSA expects the RDRC to plan, initiate, and maintain a high-quality, multi-disciplinary research program that will cover issues related to Social Security programs in addition to broader retirement and disability policy. To facilitate the production of research, the RDRC can conduct data development activities including both the development of and expanded access to research data. b. Dissemination. The RDRC will disseminate policy research findings using a variety of media to inform the academic community, policymakers, stakeholders in community-based organizations, and the public. c. Training. The RDRC will train and provide funding support for undergraduate students, graduate students, and postgraduates to conduct research on retirement and disability policy related matters.
