In 2006, Youthbuild was transferred to the Department of Labor (Labor) to better align the Youthbuild program with existing youth workforce and training programs. In response to concerns about the overall quality of Youthbuild, a Senate report directed GAO to assess the program. GAO's objectives included (1) evaluating how HUD assessed and oversaw the program, (2) determining what results the program achieved, and (3) assessing how successful grantees were in obtaining outside funding. GAO analyzed Youthbuild performance data, visited Youthbuild sites, and interviewed agency officials. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-82/html/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-82.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-82/pdf/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-82.pdf GAO-07-82 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-GAO-07-82 Other Written Product GAO-07-82; Youthbuild Program: Analysis of Outcome Data Needed to Determine Long-Term Benefits; Data collection Disadvantaged persons Federal grants Government grants Government information Low income housing Performance measures Program evaluation Reporting requirements Youth employment programs Executive agency oversight HUD Youthbuild Program
