Research & Publications
Ongoing research, evaluation, and analysis are critical components of Larkin Street’s efforts to develop innovative and relevant programs for the youth we serve. For a decade, the agency has been at the forefront of evaluation and technology among community based organizations by using data to inform the development of new programs. As the agency has grown, it has become increasingly involved in efforts to disseminate data and best practices on effective responses to the needs of homeless youth.
