Challenged Youth and Challenged Public Services: Putting Integrated Data Systems to Use

Greenfield Lecture discusses youth involved in multiple systems

This year’s Greenfield Lecture at the University of Pennsylvania will be on the topic, Challenged Youth and Challenged Public Services: Putting Integrated Data Systems to Use.

The lecture, featuring Dennis Culhane, Penn Professor of Social Policy, will take place on Tuesday, May 8th from 4-6pm at Houston Hall, 3417 Spruce Street in University City.

The presentation will identify the prevalence of youth involvement in multiple public service agencies in Philadelphia (for example, truancy, homelessness, child welfare, juvenile justice and mental health).  Working with youth in multiple systems requires the development of more complex services across systems.  The presentation will highlight some strategic opportunities for integrative services for youth.
