An Initial Review of Education, Employment and Support Services for Boston's Struggling Students and Disconnected Youth

This report identifies the prominent youth service providers for various youth populations in Boston, and aims to compare the services provided with the needs of the population. Several themes emerged as a result of this study including, the need for more services, a disparity in the significant areas of need and the actual services provided, and overlapping services. The goal of this study is to foster collaboration, capitalize on available services and reduce gaps. January 2005.
