The City of Worcester was awarded funding from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts\u2019 Safe and Successful Youth Initiative (SSYI) to continue providing services that support young men and women aged 17-24 who are likely to be perpetrators or victims of serious violence. The Worcester Department of Health & Human Services, Worcester Police Department and other partners will use the funds to strengthen and expand programs that aid in outreach, case management, education, behavioral health, employment, and job skills. Clark University is the project’s research partner who will: (1) analyze data from the SSYI CRM system to generate data reports for partner organizations, (2) facilitate monthly case manager meetings to review data reports, address challenges, and establish and monitor performance goals, and (3) ensure state reporting compliance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
