Financial Coaching
Financial coaching is an increasingly popular intervention designed to help low- and moderateincome individuals achieve financial stability and meet their financial goals. Urban Institute
researchers are evaluating financial coaching initiatives to better understand how they work, who
they serve, and what effects and outcomes they have.
Affordable Housing and Foreclosure Mitigation
The Urban Institute studies the impact of foreclosure and strategies to mitigate it both nationally
and in cities around the country. Our research and resources in this area include an evaluation of
the National Foreclosure Mitigation Counseling Program; an online guide to foreclosure
prevention and neighborhood stabilization called Foreclosure-Response.org; and the
Washington, DC, Metropolitan Area Housing Monitor.
Behavioral Finance
The choices individual consumers make daily have ripple effects that are felt in households,
communities, and the country as a whole. As part of our economic and community development
portfolio, Metro investigates factors that influence consumer decisions and some of the strategies
organizations are using to support healthier financial habits.
Chicago Family Case Management Demonstration
The Chicago Family Case Management Demonstration is an innovative initiative designed to
meet the challenges of serving the Chicago Housing Authority's "hard to house" residents.
Exposing Housing Discrimination
The Urban Institute, often in conjunction with HUD, has conducted a variety of national studies
revealing the extent of discrimination against racial and ethnic minorities and people with
disabilities in the housing market. The studies span decades and reveal how much progress has
been made and how much work is left to do.
Homelessness and Stable Housing
Metro researchers evaluate the design, operation, and effectiveness of federal, state, and local
programs to prevent homelessness in vulnerable populations.
Housing Assistance Matters Initiative
Decent and affordable housing has far-reaching consequences for people’s health, quality of life,
and access to opportunities. But these consequences are not always well understood. To inform
public debate and strengthen policy outcomes, Housing Assistance Matters uses a multimedia
approach to highlight research and analysis about the need for and benefits of well-managed
public and assisted housing.
Housing Opportunities and Services Together (HOST)
Launched by the Urban Institute with the support of the Open Society Foundations (OSF), HOST
researchers go into low-income neighborhoods to assess and address parents’ barriers to selfsufficiency—poor physical and mental health, addiction, low literacy and educational attainment,
and historically weak connections to the labor force—while integrating services for children and
youth.
Measure4Change
A pilot program from The World Bank Group and the Urban Institute to build performance
measurement and evaluation capacity among local nonprofits in the Washington, DC,
metropolitan area.
National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership
The National Neighborhood Indicators Partnership (NNIP) is a collaboration between the Urban
Institute and local partners in 35 cities to further the development and use of neighborhood
information systems for community building and local decisionmaking. Creation of this project,
which did not exist in any US city two decades ago, has democratized information, allowing for
direct, practical use of data by city and community leaders.
NeighborhoodInfo DC
A partnership of the Urban Institute and the Washington DC Local Initiatives Support
Corporation, NeighborhoodInfo DC is the DC affiliate of NNIP. This project supports
community organizations, neighborhood leadership, residents, and governments as they work to
improve the quality of life for people throughout Washington, DC.
Neighborhoods and Youth Development
In this initiative, we are testing place-based, two-generation strategies to help vulnerable parents
and children.
Open Cities
With support from the Rockefeller Foundation, the Urban Institute explored trends and
differences in economic exclusion in cities across high-income countries, as well as strategies
that cities have put in place to combat it.
Performance Measurement and Management
Metro researchers are helping governments and nonprofit organizations track and improve their
effectiveness and efficiency.
Program on Innovation in Infrastructure
A multidimensional research initiative spanning America's various infrastructure systems, the
Program on Innovation in Infrastructure sheds light on significant policy challenges facing all
levels of government. Researchers bridge conventional specialties to understand four crosscenter issues: privatization, performance measurement, economic efficiency, and
intergenerational communities.
Transforming Neighborhoods with Government Partners
The Great Recession and the corresponding collapse of the housing market have had far-reaching
effects on communities across the country. With nonprofits and local governments both trying to
do more with less, Habitat for Humanity International (HFHI) commissioned a study to
crystallize the tools its affiliates need to nurture successful collaborations. Synthesizing
information gleaned from a literature review, an extensive web survey of Neighborhood
Revitalization Initiative (NRI) affiliates, and case studies of three communities, we suggest
concrete strategies to plan, build, and sustain relationships with local government partners.
What Works Collaborative
The What Works Collaborative is a foundation-supported partnership that conducts timely
research and analysis to help inform the implementation of an evidence-based housing and urban
policy agenda.
Past Projects
HOPE VI (2001–07)
The HOPE VI program, which began in 1993, targeted some of the most beleaguered housing in
this country—dilapidated public housing developments that failed to deliver on the promise of
decent housing for the poor. Researchers followed HOPE VI residents at five sites to evaluate
where they moved and how the program has affected their overall well-being.
