What is the Arizona Housing Analytics Collaborative?

The Arizona Housing Analytics Collaborative (AzHAC) is a multidisciplinary team of faculty, students, and staff from Arizona State University, Northern Arizona University, and the University of Arizona, that leverages cutting-edge data analytics and community-based evaluation methods to provide actionable insights into housing and homelessness service delivery systems in the State of Arizona.

Current Projects

Equity Calculator

The Equity Calculator is a tool to help estimate whether there are noteworthy differences* in program outcomes across groups. It will issue a green flag if outcome numbers across groups are similar, a yellow flag if they are potentially noteworthy differences in outcomes, and a red flag if they are definitively noteworthy, meaning you are observing substantial differences in outcomes between groups.

Encampment Resolution Strategies

This project provides evaluation of the effectiveness of select homeless encampment response strategies in three Arizona counties (Yuma, Pima and Maricopa), incorporating the perspectives of people experiencing homelessness, service providers, and community leaders.

Arizona Homelessness Prevention Project

The Arizona Homelessness Prevention Project partners with agencies to prevent, divert, and resolve homelessness. The program includes evaluations by AzHAC to understand success factors and track outcomes. The project aims to improve the housed-to-homeless ratio by sharing information and improving interventions.

Latest Findings

Head of Household Characteristics

This project complements several other analytic endeavors involving HMIS data by providing operational definitions of households based on the age (adult vs. child) of individuals appearing together in HMIS enrollments. More specifically, we are interested in understanding how the composition of households change across repeated enrollments involving the same Head of Household.
