National Needs Assessment

The Family and Youth Services Bureau (FYSB) works with the Runaway and Homeless Youth Training, Technical Assistance, and Capacity Building Center (RHYTTAC) and Chapin Hall to conduct an annual National Needs Assessment (NNA). This assessment is administered to all Runaway and Homeless Youth (RHY) grantee organizations.  Grantee organizations are encouraged to participate in this web-based online assessment.

Purpose of the Assessment 

The goal of the assessment is to identify training needs for RHY grantee organizations in a variety of areas and to assess the utilization and experiences with existing Training and Technical Assistance (TTA) provided by RHYTTAC. FYSB uses the results of the assessment to identify priorities for TTA for the following year and continues to support grantee organizations in improving outcomes for youth. The assessment also helps ensure that RHYTTAC’s services best meet the needs of grantee organizations, leading to new and adapted TTA resources available to RHY grantee organizations in the future.
