On March 14, 2013, Chapin Hall hosted a Child & Family Policy Forum at the University of Chicago Gleacher Center titled ”Chapin Hall Child and Family Policy Forum: Collaborative Approaches to Teen Pregnancy Prevention.” Despite overall declining rates of teen births in the United States, there exists significant disparity across race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and youth living in conditions of higher risk. Teen pregnancy and birth rates in the United States are also significantly higher than in other industrialized nations. The social and economic costs of teen pregnancy are high and have a long-term impact on teen parents, their children, and communities. Teen pregnancy is often related to other risky behaviors, and hence its prevention is of paramount importance to the health and quality of life of pregnant and parenting youth. Consequently, it is largely a public health issue.The evidence base indicates that it takes more comprehensive approaches than just sex education to address this issue, including those that address protective factors based on knowledge, skills, beliefs, and attitudes related to teen pregnancy. Additionally, outreach is maximized when these approaches are taken to where the youth are, whether in schools or in community settings. Public health agencies are increasingly forming partnerships with such institutions and organizations, helping them to leverage local resources. They are also supporting evaluation research efforts through local and national initiatives.

On October 17, 2012, a panel of experts met to discuss community-based organizations and outcomes data at an event hosted by Chapin Hall. Community-based organizations require reliable and interpretable data in order to improve services. The need for this has increased as government and foundations require more information about the outcomes of services for children and their families. At the same time, more and more data are becoming available. However, much of it is difficult to read and is fragmented across many organizations at the city, county, state, and federal levels. For example, there is more complex Census data available, but it is challenging to access and understand. Additionally, having greater access to other sources of data on the web presents community-based organizations with much information, but, without dependable analysis, little wisdom. Making sense of a seemingly overwhelming supply of data is critical for effective decision making by policymakers and practitioners invested in child well-being. This forum discussed the challenges community-based organizations face in accessing data and potential strategies for addressing these challenges. Panel: Robert Goerge, Senior Research Fellow, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago Alaina Harkness, Program Officer for Community and Economic Development in US Programs, The MacArthur Foundation Chris Brown, Director, New Communities Program, LISC Chicago Nancy Ronquillo, President and Chief Executive Officer, Children’s Home + Aid Moderator: Matthew Stagner, Executive Director, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago Learn more about Chapin Hall at chapinhall.org

Youth violence is a public health crisis in the United States. Based on the most recent statistics, approximately 20 percent of high school students report being bullied at school, and over 30 percent report being in a physical fight. Homicide is the second leading cause of death of young people, with an average of 16 youth murdered every day. There is no simple or single answer to reducing youth violence. The problem is multiply determined and requires coordinated effort at multiple levels and across systems. Because of the complexity of the issue, programs need to address children and families at different developmental ages and engage with youth at varying levels of associated risk and involvement. Efforts should be coordinated among the social systems that have the most direct influence on youth at different stages of development--families, schools, community agencies, and justice--and should focus both on primary prevention and interventions directed toward both high-risk and “deep-end” (those already actively engaged in violence) youth. Most importantly, programs should be based in the best available evidence demonstrating effects on preventing and decreasing youth violence. Panelists Deborah Gorman-Smith, Research Fellow, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago, and Principal Investigator and director of the Chicago Center for Youth Violence Prevention Thomas R. Simon, Deputy Associate Director for Science, Division of Violence Prevention, National Center for Injury Prevention and Control of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Karen Barbee-Dixon, Chief Operating Officer, Habilitative Systems, Inc (HSI) Moderator, Cheryl Smithgall, Research Fellow, Chapin Hall at the University of Chicago

State agencies finance and administer a range of services -- from foster care for abused and neglected children to prisons to long-term care of the elderly. How can large public agencies and small community organizations plan better to meet the needs of the people they serve? Traditionally, useful and timely data for planning purposes have been in short supply. Recent research linking data across a number of public agencies has highlighted some significant findings about state services and the people who use them. One study suggests that comparatively few families consume the lion's share of Illinois's service resources. Researchers looked at five services-mental health care, substance abuse treatment, foster care, adult incarceration, and juvenile incarceration-and found that the 23 percent of Illinois families using multiple services accounted for 86 percent of the dollars spent on those services. Another study -- of former prisoners in Illinois -- showed that 52 percent of them went to Chicago, and that 34 percent of those returned to six economically and socially disadvantaged communities. These studies raise important questions for service providers about the needs of the people they help and the allocation of resources to do so.
