The Q&A features war veteran, caregiver, writer, and RAND researcher Kayla Williams. The POV column features Judith Rodin, president of The Rockefeller Foundation, on resilience building in cities and institutions. The Voices column by RAND president and CEO Michael Rich takes a look at what research says about profiling.
