December 11, 2023

Since 2009, SDRG has been working with the Annie E. Casey Foundation on model development, manualization, and coaching for the Evidence2Success project. The current team at SDRG includes Capetra Parker and Britton Steel. Our evaluation partner, Penn State, recently reported on Evidence2Success communities’ experience, based on local risk and protection data, in making effective decisions to support young people and families. The brief is intended to help community and public system leaders incorporate risk-and protection-oriented surveys into their programs. The report is available here: How Youth Surveys Guide Collective Community Investment and Planning: Benefits of Using Youth Data (aecf.org).
