This study summarizes and analyzes the findings of a statewide survey conducted last year of samples of homeless individuals in the Phoenix and Tucson areas and across the state. The aim of this report is to join with other, ongoing efforts to develop effective policies concerning such issues as job training, treatment for the mentally ill and Arizona’s critical need for affordable housing. Hopefully, it will help politicians and policymakers talk more openly and productively about a pervasive social problem that is both glaringly obvious and largely invisible.
This study is the first major effort to examine U.S. charter-school authorizing practices and policy environments, with special focus on 24 states. The following links lead to the final report, which can be downloaded in full or in sections, and also to a supplemental data table for each state.
