WCA launches Westchester Children & Youth Homelessness Data (WCCYHD) Dashboard!  | wca4kids.org
Channel: Westchester Children's Association
Date: 2021-09-28

The Westchester County Child and Youth Homelessness Dashboard (WCCHYD) is being published after months of data hunting and analysis by WCA so that demographic, geographic, and racial trends among children and youth experiencing homelessness in Westchester County are more visible. 

This easy to use and interactive dashboard features information about:
- Westchester County & all 40 school districts
- Data for 2014 to 2020 
- Breakdowns by age, race, and both
- Housing status and shelter occupancy
- Length of time remaining homeless
- Length of time until services received

Some of this information is not available anywhere else!
Many thanks to our partners at the WCA Child & Youth Homelessness Workgroup, Westchester Continuum of Care Partnership to End Homelessness, and the Westchester County Department of Social Services (DSS).  Much of the information was obtained by FOIL request to the NY State Education Department by FOIL request.
