1 Does Homelessness Preven-on Work: Evalua-on of the NYC Homebase Program ICPH Conference, 1/17/14 1
2 New York City Context Right to Shelter Work Supports TANF Cash Grant Diversion at Intake Eviction Prevention 2
3 Over a million households in NYC live in poverty or face steep rent burdens, threat of evic:on, and similar housing risks, but less than 10,000 enter shelter each year. 3
4 Was ini:ated in 2004 in six communi:es Non-profit organizations run 14 Homebase offices in the highest need communities, serving over 10,000 households each year Flexible service plans including family and landlord mediation, budgeting, entitlements advocacy, employment, legal advice and short-term financial assistance 4
5 Program Model Since 2005, Homebase has served almost 50,000 households and providedto$24 in financial 8 non-profit organizations runmillion 11 Homebase assistance. programs in the highest need communities serving over 10,000 each year But how many would have come to shelter if not for services? Flexible service plans including family and landlord mediation, budgeting, entitlements advocacy, employment, legal advice and short-term financial assistance Brief and full service model 5
6 Need for An Evalua-on To determine how targeted and effec:ve preven:on programs are, researchers have long called for randomized control trials (RCT) Program evalua:on results are important indicators of the value obtained from government programs and expenditures 6
7 In 2009, DHS commissioned a comprehensive mul:- part evalua:on to examine the Homebase homelessness preven:on program in order to measure effec:veness, learn how the program could be improved upon, and contribute to the na:onal conversa:on on preven:on. New York City is the first locality in the na:on to examine the impact of homelessness preven:on programs and to develop a research- based risk assessment to improve targe:ng. 7
8 The Comprehensive Evalua-on Study Neighborhood shelter trends The community impact of Homebase Family risk factors that predict shelter entry Random assignment study 8
9 1. What makes a community high risk for shelter entries and is Homebase targe@ng services to these high risk communi@es? John Mollenkopf, City University of New York, Center for Urban Research 2. Do communi@es served by Homebase see a reduc@on in shelter entries? Brendan O Flaherty and Peter Messeri, Columbia Center for Homelessness Preven:on Studies 3. What makes a household high risk for shelter entry and can Homebase target services to these high risk individuals? MaryBeth Shinn and Andrew Greer, Vanderbilt University 4. Do households served by Homebase enter shelter at a lower rate than those who are not served? Howard Rolston and Gretchen Locke, Abt Associates 9
10 Part I. Neighborhood Shelter Trends What are the neighborhood and familial factors that contribute to homelessness? Geo- coded last addresses of families found eligible 2004 through 2009 by census tract Matched that with extensive range of tract- level data (socio- economic, housing, etc) from the combined ACS file, residen:al sales, and assisted housing loca:ons. 10
11 11
12 Neighborhood Shelter Trends Findings: Shelter Entry Correlates strongly with race and ethnicity Also correlates strongly with poverty, family form, marginality Correlates moderately with neighborhood characteris:cs (rent levels, rent to income ra:os) Correlates only weakly with changes in residen:al sales prices or trends in rent levels 12
13 Part II. Community Impact of Homebase: A Quasi- Experimental Do communi@es served by Homebase see a reduc@on in shelter entries? Would these par:cipants have become homeless in the absence of preven:on efforts? How many non- par:cipants became homeless as a result of the preven:on program i.e. musical chairs When would par:cipants and non par:cipants have become homeless? Did Homebase impact the length of stay for non- par:cipants or households already in shelter? What is the impact of foreclosures on shelter entries? 13
14 Data Anonymous lis:ng of families entering NYC shelter system between January 2003 and November 2008 Separate lis:ng of HB cases opened between November 2004 and November Iden:fying informa:on Census tract and community district of residence Month of shelter entry/hb case opened Other useful informa:on Official start of HB opera:ons in each CD Length of shelter stay Distance between each community district and closest HB center Monthly count of housing units in buildings in which foreclosure proceedings were ini:ated 14
15 Model Design and Specifica-on HB effects could be iden:fied because DHS ini:ally limited HB services to six CDs in November 2004, then expand eligibility to 31 more CD s in July 2007 and to the en:re City in January Complica:ng the quasi experiment: DHS purposely selected high shelter use neighborhoods for phasing in CD s and loca:on of HB centers Great Recession result in secular rise in shelter entries 15
16 Results During the November 2004 through November 2008 period: Homebase reduced shelter entries: Between 10 and 20 family entrants were averted per 100 HB cases opened. 16
17 More Results Homebase is more effec:ve at aver:ng shelter entries in higher risk neighborhoods Homebase does not cause musical chairs. Shelter entries are not pushed to neighboring areas. Families are not simply delaying entry. HB doesn t affect length of shelter stay. For every 100 Lis Pendens (pre- foreclosure filings ), between 3 and 5 families enter shelter 17
18 Part III. Risk Assessment A risk assessment tool Who is most likely to come into shelter 18
19 Study Ques-ons Q1: What was the pamern of shelter entry over :me among families who applied for Homebase services? Q2: What families were at highest risk of entering shelter? Q3: Is it possible to develop a short screening instrument to target services? Q4: If Homebase adopted bemer targe:ng, how much more effec:ve might it be? 19
20 Data 11,105 Homebase families who applied for services between Oct 1, 2004 and June 30, 2008 Analyzed intake and program eligibility data for families with children DHS provided administra:ve data on shelter entry over the next 3 years 20
21 Risk Factor Domains Demographics Human capital and poverty Housing Disability Interpersonal discord Childhood experiences Previous Shelter Dependent Variable: Time to Shelter Entry 21
22 Survival Analysis What was the pamern of shelter entry? Survival Analysis Technique borrowed from medicine where survival is how long a pa:ent lived aner treatment For us, the end point was not mortality, but shelter entry Ques:ons: how long did people stay out of shelter? (Survival Curve) which periods of :me were applicants at greatest risk of shelter entry? (Hazard Es:mate) 22
23 Results - > Q1 What was the pamern of shelter entry over :me among families who applied for Homebase services? 12.8% entered shelter within three years of applying Most families who entered shelter did so shortly aner applying for services 23
24 Results - > Q2 (Risk Factors) What families were at highest risk of entering shelter? Coefficient Haz Ra-o Risk direc-on Conf Interval Female Age Child under 2 yrs old Pregnant High School / GED Currently Employed Public Assistance History Name on lease Threatened with evic:on Number of :mes moved in past yr
25 Results - > Q2 (Risk Factors) Coefficient Haz Ra-o Risk Direc-on Conf Interval History with protec:ve services Av Discord with landlord/ household Childhood Disrup:on index Shelter as an adult (self report) Applied for shelter in last 3 mos Seeking to reintegrate into community # Prior shelter applica:ons
26 Results - > Q3 Is it possible to develop a short screening instrument? Eliminated loca:on and administra:ve variables Eliminated racial categories Omimed variables that didn t contribute reliably to predic:on of shelter entry Examined hazard ra:os to assign 1-3 points for each predictor For con:nuous variables like age, examined pamerns of shelter entry at different ages to decide on cut points 26
27 Risk Assessment Screener 1 point Pregnancy Child under 2 No high school/ged Not currently employed Not leaseholder Reintegra:ng into community 2 points Receiving public assistance (PA) Protec:ve services Evicted or asked to leave by landlord or leaseholder Applying for shelter in last 3 months 3 points Reports previous shelter as an adult Age 1 pt: 23-28; 2 pts: 22 Moves last year 1 pt: 1-3 moves; 2 pts: 4+ moves Disrup:ve experiences in childhood 1 pt: 1-2 experiences; 2 pts: 3+ experiences Discord (landlord, leaseholder, or household) 1 pt: Moderate (4 5.59); 2 pts: Severe (5.6 9) 27
28 Conclusions The short screener can predict likelihood of shelter entry more accurately than subject decisions (a 26% increase in targe:ng accuracy) Predic:on is hard: even at the highest levels of risk, most families avoid shelter. Workers should be able to override the recommenda:on of the model with wrimen explana:ons Determina:on of the propor:on of families to serve is a ques:on of available funds and costs, both to the homeless service systems and to society. 28
29 Part IV. The Random Assignment Study 295 families were enrolled in Summer 2010 and followed for 27 months through December were in the treatment group and 145 in the control Abt released its final report on May 28,
30 Research Ques-ons Confirmatory Does the Homebase Community Preven:on program affect the rate of shelter use, as defined by nights in shelter during the study s follow- up period? Do any savings that result from reduced shelter costs offset the cost of opera:ng the program? Exploratory Are clients who are offered access to the program less likely to spend at least one night in shelter during the follow- up period? Are clients who are offered access to the program less likely to apply for shelter during the follow- up period? 30
31 Data En:rely based on administra:ve records Baseline Homebase Universal Pre- Screen Personal iden:fiers used just for matching Demographic: household composi:on, income, employment, benefits; past and current housing situa:on; risk of homelessness Follow- up: up to 27 months (December 2012) Shelter use: Department of Homeless Services Child Protec:on Services: Administra:on for Children s Services Public Assistance: Human Resources Administra:on Employment: New York State Department of Labor (aggregate) 31
32 Model and Significance Tests Intent to Treat Analysis Es:ma:on Ordinary Least Squares with robust standard errors One- tailed test If the program either fails to reduce nights in shelter or actually increases it, the policy conclusion is that the program is not successful in mee:ng its primary goal.10 Because there is limle likelihood that the program will produce harm, the research team risk greater chance of a false posi:ve to decrease risk of a false nega:ve 32
33 Homebase Successfully Reduces Shelter Applicants Percentage of Households Applying 20% 16% 12% 8% 4% 18.2% 49% Fewer Shelter Applicants 9.3% Homebase cut the number of study households who applied for shelter in half. 0% Control Group Treatment Group 33
34 Homebase Significantly Reduces Average Nights in Shelter (70%) Fewer Nights Nights in Shelter Control Group Treatment Group 34
35 Homebase is Cost Effec-ve $2,500 $2,000 Average Shelter Cost Per Study Household City Funds Only $765 $558 $1,500 $1,000 $500 $0 Shelter Cost City Homebase Cost State & Federal Shelter Cost Homebase Cost Every dollar invested in Homebase saves $1.37 in City dollars spent on shelter. 35
36 Summary Homebase reduced average nights in shelter, shelter entry and applica:on for shelter The data suggest it did so by a combina:on of reducing shelter entry and average nights in shelter for those who entered or would have entered in the absence of the program The analysis suggests that the savings from the es:mated reduc:on in nights in shelter was greater than the es:mated cost of opera:ng Community Preven:on 36
37 Summary of Key Findings of the Evalua-on Study Homelessness is concentrated in a small number of communi-es: nearly two- thirds of all family shelter entrants come from 15 communi:es Homebase affects the paeern of shelter usage in the highest risk communi-es: Having a Homebase office in the highest risk communi:es prevents at least 10% of all families served from entering shelter New, more sophis-cated tools can be used by front- line workers to target at- risk families: a new risk assessment tool created from years of program data will improve the targe:ng of services by 26% There are no families who are too hard to serve: Homebase was most successful with the highest need families Homebase is successful in preven-ng homelessness and saving government resources. 37
38 Challenges of Homelessness Preven-on If preven:on were perfectly targeted and perfectly effec:ve (and scaled to serve everyone at risk), it could solve homelessness Preven:on will never be perfectly targeted or perfectly effec:ve (or large enough) Preven:on cannot replace the shelter system, but it can reduce the demand for shelter. It is a cri:cal component of the homeless service system. 38
39 What Can We Do? What makes a household high risk for shelter entry and can Homebase target services to these high risk individuals? Targe:ng services to prevent homelessness is difficult: Numbers of shelter entrants are small and many people with mul:ple risk factors for shelter entry avoid shelter Preven:on should be aimed at those most at- risk of becoming homeless 39
