Abt promotes stable, decent, affordable, and inclusive housing in the U.S. by building evidence for effective housing policy, community development, and asset-building strategies. Our evaluation work in the 1970s informed the creation and implementation of the Housing Choice Voucher program, the nation’s largest tenant-based rental assistance program. Today, our focus is homelessness, including management of the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Annual Homelessness Assessment Report. We support initiatives to increase both the overall housing stock and the supply of affordable homes for everyone. All pose complex challenges for policymakers at the federal, state, and local levels.

Abt’s capacity building, learning, and development strategies generate, deliver, and continuously evaluate an array of targeted learning and training experiences. We carefully collect and curate data and research to provide evidence-informed practices as we transfer knowledge and skills to individuals and organizations. Our professional and organizational development approaches give learners the ability to execute their mandates, and provide efficient and effective programs and services.

Abt shares key findings on stronger leader practice, educator support, and classroom gains from Massachusetts’ Early Childhood Support Organization (ECSO) initiative.

Our experts look forward to exploring how we will use evidence, analytics, and disciplined implementation to improve program outcomes.
