Abstract: The Chief Evaluation Office (CEO) in the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) is undertaking the Pathway Home Grant Program Evaluation. The overall aim of the evaluation is to determine whether the Pathway Home grant programs improve employment and justice outcomes and workforce readiness for adults by expanding the availability of services to individuals in the justice system, both before and after release. The Evaluation of the Pathway Home Grant Program (Pathway Home Evaluation) offers a unique opportunity to build knowledge about the implementation and effectiveness of these programs. CEO contracted with Mathematica and its subcontractor, Social Policy Research Associates, to conduct an implementation and impact study. This information collection request seeks Office of Management and Budget (OMB) clearance for two new data collection instruments.
