Our Mission and History
Mathematica’s mission is to improve public well-being by using data and evidence that meet the highest quality standards. Together with our partners, we’re working to improve outcomes and build evidence that drives decisions for global impact. Our history includes developing one of the earliest models for social policy research, which set the stage for our growth as a diverse and innovative team using data science, social science, and technology to deliver sustainable solutions.
Employee-Owned and Dedicated
Employee ownership is a way of life and source of pride at Mathematica. We are a 100 percent employee-owned company, with a profit-sharing plan and an employee stock ownership plan (ESOP) that benefit every member of our staff after six months of employment.
Our Commitment to Our Communities and Each Other
Mathematica has been a mission-driven organization for more than 50 years. But our definition of mission-driven has never stopped evolving. Today it describes not only our commitment to improving public well-being through the use of data and evidence, but also the way we engage with our clients, colleagues, and partners around the world. We are active volunteers in our communities, enthusiastic corporate sponsors for a range of non-profit events and organizations, and builders of shared workspaces that value collaboration, sustainability, and creating an environment where everyone belongs and has the opportunity to make an impact.
Giving Back Where We Live and Work
Mathematica staff across the U.S. have a tradition of volunteering in the communities where they live and work. You’ll find our staff helping in food pantries, building homes, mentoring youth, and sharing professional expertise and skills with non-profit organizations. Mathematica recognizes these efforts through a corporate giving philosophy that translates volunteer work hours into financial support for each organization.
