Using Data to Drive Performance in Youth Case Management

During this webinar, nationally-recognized Latin American Youth Center (LAYC) will discuss the new and innovative ways in which they are using data to inform best practice in youth services.

Achieving Measurable Success with Adjudicated Youth

Focusing on delivering measurable results with an outcomes-driven approach
Incorporating positive role models, intensive case management, and participant feedback
Using development assets that influence choices young people make and help them become caring, responsible adults.

FLY will also discuss how they've been able to demonstrate the value of their programs – which add up to being one-tenth the cost of incarceration – and receive increased grant awards as a result.
