Youth Research Inc.

Our mission is to promote the safety, permanency, and well-being of New York State’s children, families, and communities. Our organization was established in 2019 to conduct research and develop program and policy recommendations that support the work of New York’s Office of Children and Family Services (OCFS) and local agencies that serve youth and families. Our work enables OCFS and its state and local partners to enhance program and service provision. Through innovation, collaboration, and research, we build understanding of the intricacies and complexities of working with children, families, and adults. Ultimately, our work will help position OCFS and its partners as national leaders in the field.
