Street Outreach Program Data Collection Project Report Released

This study funded by the ACF’s Family and Youth Services Bureau, provides a portrait of young people aged 14–21 who are experiencing homelessness in areas served by the 11 Street Outreach Program (SOP) grantees. Although the sample is not nationally representative, the data provides detailed information about the experiences and service needs of the 656 street youth from around the country who participated in the project. The intent is that data from the project will be used to inform service design to better meet the needs of street youth who obtain and access services through street outreach programs.
