note = "Funding Information: Private foundations have strongly supported partnership work, both by funding partnership research itself and by working to improve the science and practice of RPPs. Since 2015, the Spencer Foundation{\textquoteright}s Research Practice Partnership grants program has funded 32 RPPs, several of which focused on early education (a new application window also opened in late 2020). The foundation has also hosted several meetings for its grant recipients to share what works best in this line of work.10 The William T. Grant Foundation created a set of online resources for funders looking to support RPPs and for research-practice collaborators hoping to develop a partnership.11 In 2016, the Spencer, William T. Grant, Bill and Melinda Gates, Annie E. Casey, and Wallace foundations established the National Network of Education Research-Practice Partnerships (NNERPP), aimed at developing, supporting, and connecting education RPPs.12 NNERPP holds meetings, collects and disseminates resources, and helps RPPs collaborate with one another.",
