Youth Experiences Survey 2016

The Youth Experiences Survey (YES) has been given every year for the past three years to a complex and difficult population to assess. Homeless runaway young adults (ages 18 to 25) are difficult to find and can be difficult to engage. This survey is given to homeless young adults in both Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona through homeless youth-targeted service providers. The findings from the YES survey continue to provide insight into the challenges and needs of homeless young adults. Information from the YES survey provides data about the scope and complexity of their challenges including the sex trafficking experiences of these young people.
