==== The Shriver Report ==== In October 2009, Shriver launched "The Shriver Report: A Woman's Nation Changes Everything", a national study and comprehensive report conducted in partnership with the [[Center for American Progress]], USC's Annenberg Center on Communication, Leadership and Policy, and the [[Rockefeller Foundation]]. The Shriver Report revealed that American women, for the first time, make up half of the United States workforce and studied how that fact is impacting major institutions like family, business, government and faith organizations.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33247001/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091017235153/http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33247001/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=October 17, 2009 |title=Special report: Women today |publisher=MSNBC |access-date=March 23, 2011}}</ref> The report was released in 2013 in partnership with ''TIME''<ref>{{cite magazine |url=http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1930506,00.html |title=The American Woman |date=October 26, 2009 |magazine=[[Time (magazine)|Time]] |access-date=October 8, 2014 |first=Richard |last=Stengel |archive-date=August 26, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130826135938/http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1930506,00.html |url-status=dead }}</ref> and [[NBC News]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2009/04/womans_nation.html|title=A Woman's Nation – Center for American Progress|date=April 15, 2009|access-date=May 16, 2010|archive-date=October 14, 2009|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091014133247/http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2009/04/womans_nation.html|url-status=live}}</ref> According to ''The New York Times'', the report "was modeled on [[Presidential Commission on the Status of Women|a study undertaken almost 50 years ago]] during the administration of [[John F.
