| Abstract: | The Voices of Youth Count initiative's systematic evidence review is the most comprehensive synthesis of evaluation evidence on programs and practices related to youth homelessness to date. This document is one in a series of seven topical evidence summaries derived from the longer evidence review brief. Herein, evaluations of family interventions for youth experiencing homelessness, not including housing-related services, are summarized. These interventions involve both young people and their family members and usually include a counseling component. The evidence here includes only impact evaluations designed to assess measurable changes in outcomes due to specific programs and practices. [For the longer evidence review brief, "Missed Opportunities: Evidence on Interventions for Addressing Youth Homelessness," see ED603003.] |
