The Meadows Center for Preventing Educational Risk (MCPER) was created in 2008 with a major commitment from the Meadows Foundation. As part of the College of Education at The University of Texas at Austin, MCPER has assembled a unique group of experts in mathematics, STEM, reading, writing, cognitive psychology, neuroscience, bilingual education, special education, and early childhood. We support educators with practical knowledge and tools, rooted in high-quality research, to improve outcomes for all students, especially those at risk.
