Single Moms Success Design Challenge
Education Design Lab uses a human-centered design process in combination with tools from other industries
to help schools, employers, government agencies, foundations, nonprofits, and innovators
to design, test, and implement new higher education models that improve opportunity
for historically underserved learners.
