Homelessness Evaluation Resource Hub
Leaders in the housing and homeless sector are working hard every day to make a difference in their communities. To maximize the impact of this critical work, it is beneficial to know what’s working and what isn’t.
That’s where evidence comes in.
Evidence from rigorous research can provide critical information on whether something works, how, and for whom—information valuable for not only those administering a particular program, but also the broader population of decision-makers.
J-PAL North America’s Homelessness Evaluation Resource Hub houses tools and information to help researchers, government leaders, and program administrators...
- Leverage findings from current literature to drive decision-making and
- Help build our shared knowledge of effective strategies to address homelessness.
