Impact Evaluation of the School Safety and Student Performance Partnership

• In Event: The Effects of Mental Health and Trauma Informed Interventions on School Climate and Safety

Abstract

We report results from an individual-level impact evaluation of a school-based, multidisciplinary intervention for youth with police contact. Over 600 youth were randomly assigned to receive either treatment as usual or wraparound services coordinated by a multidisciplinary team. Findings from longitudinal analyses of youth outcomes are discussed.
