Moving To Opportunity Research
Moving To Opportunity (MTO) is a national demonstration
program that has been operated by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban
Development since 1994. Recent research is based on data collected in
2002, in all five sites. The initial findings cover the first three
years of the program, from analyses of single sites.

on MTO and Initial Findings
The experimental design of the MTO demonstration included
a randomized lottery offering housing vouchers to families in public
housing. The design provides a unique opportunity to definitively
measure and to understand the impacts of a change in neighborhood on the
social well-being of low-income families.
