The Scholars Strategy Network (SSN) is a national membership organization made up of college- and university-based researchers interested in improving policy and strengthening democracy. Founded in 2011 by Theda Skocpol, Victor S. Thomas Professor of Government and Sociology at Harvard University, SSN has grown into a network of over 2,000 researchers in 47 states. SSN members organize themselves into local chapters across the United States, working to advance the use of research wherever policy decisions are made - from city halls to state legislatures to Washington.
Features
To foster a nationwide culture where research regularly informs policy at every level, scholars must build strong, sustained relationships with policymakers, civic intermediaries, and journalists.
To do this, SSN:
Teaches public engagement best practices, with an emphasis on relationship building
Emphasizes the value of providing practical support to policy actors
Organizes scholars into chapters, cohorts, and issue-specific working groups
Helps scholars translate academic jargon into clear and compelling language for the media

What impressed me most was the mentoring approach. Scholars.sg didn’t just tutor subjects; they helped build motivation, structure, and self-belief. The academic improvement followed naturally.
