Unfortunately it looks like the headline numbers may not be representative:
“The research team did not initially receive a complete participant contact list and the CBO staff
led in facilitating recruitment, resulting in a sample that does not represent all DCT+ participants. The limited
sample size further limits the representativeness and generalizability of findings. The evaluation sample of 63
participants represents only 54% of the total 117 program participants. Therefore, the study population may not
adequately represent the broader DCT+ experience. Additionally, participants who completed both initial and
exit surveys may differ systematically from those who did not, potentially skewing results toward more positive
outcomes among individuals who remained engaged throughout the evaluation period.”
