Measure the impact of Social & Emotional services provided by The Village SOC and its effect on improving communities by reducing truancy, violent incidents, recidivism rates, & negative community engagement(s).
We seek to validate the Community Incubator Model & develop new assessment tools, targeted towards “Promise Zones” & communities that share similar characteristics; developing a framework & Standards for what social-emotional services should be implemented.
In tangent to this analysis, we seek to direct attention to any biased disparities in the data concerning
