Introduction to Data & Analysis Tools

The data on this site are intended to serve several audiences, including policy makers, program administrators, and researchers. There are two ways to access and use the data from the Cash & Counseling Demonstration and Evaluation (CCDE):

Public Use Files allow you to access and download data from the evaluation, or

Interactive Analysis allows you to easily manipulate data to create charts and graphs with variables of interest.

Mathematica Policy Research, Inc. designed and implemented the CCDE quantitative evaluation. For a detailed description of the CCDE design, see Mahoney, K. J., Simone, K., & Simon-Rusinowitz, L. (2000). Early Lessons from the Cash & Counseling Demonstration and Evaluation. Generations, 24(3) Fall, 41-46.
