DATA FOR GOOD.
The team at the Youth Policy Lab is uniquely positioned to deploy data in service of the public good. Using rigorous evaluation design and big data analysis, we’re working closely with state and local government agencies, foundations, and large nonprofit organizations to build a future where public investments are based on strong evidence.
“We find the Youth Policy Lab to be strategic, thoughtful, sensitive to the dynamics at the intersection of government, non-profits, corporate and philanthropic space – and as equally committed to the rigors of research and the reality of human service initiatives.” -Nicole Sherard-Freeman, Executive Director for the City of Detroit’s Workforce Development
