Public-Nonprofit Collaboration and Policy in Homeless Services: Management, Measurement, and Impact

Jang, Hee Soun; Valero, Jesús N.

This book examines public-nonprofit collaborations in the context of federal homeless policy.  Communities across the U.S. are expected to create local homeless service networks, known as Continuums of Care (CoCs), in order to respond to their incidence of homelessness.  It leverages unique, original and national data and applies collaborative governance theories to develop a systematic understanding of network governance and leadership, health care services for those experiencing homelessness, and measuring impact of collaborative activities.  The book offers a connected and comprehensive understanding of public-nonprofit collaboration in a homeless policy field and management strategies to lead and assess cross-sector arrangements.
