Youth Data Dashboard
We are proud to present this Youth Data Dashboard with the community stakeholders and the public. This is an exciting step for our community bringing us closer to achieving more consistent data collection and tracking towards outcome goals, informed by community reflection and input. The process of reviewing the dashboard will continue to facilitate an unprecedented level of impact, change, and accountability about the accessibility and function of our systems and processes.
Our thanks to all our community stakeholders and partner agencies, including Lighthouse Youth & Family Services, the Family Housing Partnership (Bethany House Services, Interfaith Hospitality Network of Greater Cincinnati, The Salvation Army, and the YWCA Greater Cincinnati), and the Children’s Law Center.

The Comprehensive Community Plan to End Youth Homelessness in Cincinnati and Hamilton County, Ohio
Cincinnati/Hamilton County was one of the initial ten communities selected to participate in the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) funded Youth Homelessness Demonstration Project (YHDP), with a goal of developing and implementing innovative strategies to end youth homelessness. KEYS to a Future Without Youth Homelessness (KEYS) is the comprehensive community plan to end youth homelessness, written by community stakeholders with leadership from Strategies to End Homelessness and Lighthouse Youth & Family Services. The KEYS Plan was approved by HUD on January 5, 2018.
