Building a Data-Driven Strategy to Re-Engage Opportunity Youth in the DFW

Communities Foundation of Texas will describe the regional mobilization that is underway to better coordinate services for Opportunity Youth. The Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex is home to the largest number of young adults who are disconnected from school and work in Texas. The workshop will highlight data assets and innovative new research from Aspen, The Ray Marshall Center, and the Economic Mobility Systems to better target and track re-engagement interventions that put young people at the center.
