I was an immigrant teenager living in Boston suburbs, taking subway into city, always noticing imposing @federalreserve building outside the downtown station.

Last year, we prevented 459 evictions in Boston. But there are over 1000 more who we could have helped, but we didn't have the resources. -Matt Pritchard @HomeStart1 #InvestInResults

Just reading the tweets from yesterday's #InvestInResults Boston event has me so excited about the possibilities of social investment and collaboration. Can't imagine what it was like to be there! @JenTalansky
— Tara Browne (@WorcesterEA) November 28, 2018

It costs Boston Housing Authority around $10K to evict a family; it costs @HomeStart1 $2K to prevent that eviction. Everyone is on board to make this shift. $1MM in savings for BHA from this program last year- wow! #InvestInResults
— Jen Talansky (@JenTalansky) November 27, 2018

Reflecting on #InvestInResults event. Blown away by the field's innovation. People are coming up with smart solutions and can't fully enact them b/c they're short on funding. Give to @HomeStart1 @ascentria @communityserv & many others making our communities stronger, healthier!

#InvestInResults. Catherine D'Amato, CEO and President of The Greater Boston Food Bank, was part of the panel discussing the relationship between food and health this past Tuesday. Great event focusing on long-term results.

With such a good project, with known solutions, how come we aren't seeing more of this? What are the systemic issues we need to fix? @IJGalloway #InvestInResults
— Jen Talansky (@JenTalansky) November 27, 2018

Fascinating insight from @homestart1: one of the reasons to to advocate for at least part of payment from City to be results based is to lock City into tracking and sharing outcomes data (in this case whether families stayed housed after intervention)#investinresults

It will take govt agency heads who manage a budget for a certain thing to be motivated to find savings that could be realized by another agency. Too many siloes. -Sheila Dillon, BHA #InvestInResults

“Did it work?” and “Can you prove it?” are wrong questions for early stage. Better questions are “is the system moving in the right direction?”
“Our quest for proof often blinds is to the impact we’re having”
