Sven R. Larson, Ph.D.
Our findings are based on the research of Russell Sobel and Kerry King, which shows that counties that offer school choice see a significantly higher rate of self-employment among young men and women.

In this study we found that a similar program in the counties of Clarendon,Hampton, Lee, Marlboro andWilliamsburgcould have created 123 small businesses and 379 additional jobs.
