Shrinking Numbers
The number of families receiving welfare has dropped every year since 1995.
This issue of Casey Connects features three distinctive conferences highlighting Making Connections and the ever-expanding network of critical Casey partnerships. It explores local data collection, emergent consultant roles and revolutionary welfare reforms. A smaller story presents recommended resources.
The data agenda in Making Connections is driven by the fundamental Casey tenet that neighborhoods need to be able to produce, interpret and use data effectively to both understand and influence the forces that shape their destinies.
