Learnings from a Decade with the Aspen Institute Opportunity Youth Forum

Since 2014, Equal Measure has partnered with the Aspen Institute Forum for Community Solutions as its learning and evaluation partner for the Opportunity Youth Forum, a national systems change effort to connect 16- to 24-year-olds not in school or work to education and careers. Our collection of publications features insights from a decade-long collaboration with the Forum, providing a better understanding of how local collaboratives serve opportunity youth.
