"We are at an exciting point in our work. LEO has over 110 studies underway or completed. LEO’s research is increasingly being put into action; we are replicating effective programs, we are actively growing our engagement with policymakers, and other nonprofits are learning from our results. All this is built off of innovative service providers who put the people they serve first and treat them with dignity and respect. In the pages that follow, you’ll hear directly from those partners, who authored nearly all of the articles in this issue. It is an easy and important mission to get behind, and I’m honored to join this team and lead us to our next phase of impact."
- Holly Kuzmich, Michael L. Smith managing director
