Research
The Staten Island Equity & Belonging Study
A mixed-methods study examining the attitudes, perceptions, and awareness that SI residents have about aspects of equity and community belonging-- The SIEB survey study.
A Pilot Study on Hotels as Non-Congregate Emergency Living Accommodations for Returning Citizens
The study examines interventions with adults recently released from prison and their transition to non-congregate hotel settings. The study combines systemwide secondary data with focus groups, participant surveys, and one on one interviews. The research team of returning citizens, support staff, case managers, and administrators have employed a Developmental Evaluation (DE) approach to the research.
