Atlanta Housing Authority (MTW)

Client Request

Evaluate the Moving to Work compliance of all 18,000 families receiving assistance from the Atlanta Housing Authority as part of its Catalyst initiative. One piece of this evaluation involves measuring the programs' impact on encouraging the self-sufficiency of participating families. This includes measuring increases in employment, increases in human capital (education, job skills, etc...) and the advantages and disadvantages of tenant-based vs. project voucher-based housing.

Euquant Solution

In addition to delivering technically excellent program evaluations, we know that helping our client combine the impacts on individual outcomes into a coherent policy means they will be able to provide better assistance to more people for a longer period of time.

Euquant Insight

Evaluating the program within its different areas helps the client understand its effectiveness. Helping our client maximize benefits to the individual family and the neighborhood as a whole, all while satisfying their fiscal restraints, guarantees their success.

EuQuant Deliverables

1) Unique metrics to benchmark and therefore track residents over time.

2) Evaluations for the impact of project vouchers on income, employment and children's education.

3) Recommendations which balance and combine the results of these and other analytical findings to provide insight at the macro level.
