The DC Fiscal Policy Institute welcomes two new staff members, Stephanie Schneiderman and Peter Tuths! Stephanie is DCFPI’s first AVODAH Jewish Service Corps member and will be serving as Outreach, Communications, and Development Assistant. Peter is our new Fall/Winter intern working with our policy analysts on a range of issues.
Stephanie recently graduated Brandeis University with a B.A. in Health Science, Society, and Policy. She will be working with all staff members on communicating DCFPI’scommitment to growing economic prosperity throughout the District. Stephanie’s research interests include the intersection of health care and its determinants, such as education, access to safe housing, and socioeconomic class.
Peter graduated with a B.A. in Political Science and English in 2013 from Stony Brook University. His undergraduate work focused on law, international institutions, environmental issues, and an array of governmental study topics. He previously worked in development for Heading Home, Inc., a Boston based homelessness nonprofit, where he focused on fundraising efforts and charity event planning.
He also interned at the Massachusetts State House in 2011 for State Senator William Brownsberger and was employed as a campaign fellow during the Senator’s 2013 run for Congress. He plans on utilizing his experience working with DCFPI to enter policy research professionally in the future, with particular emphasis on how certain policies affect those living in poverty.
Please help us welcome Stephanie and Peter!
