Thus, this descriptive study, based on a mixed methods research design, determined the impact of services offered by New York City's Young Adult Borough Centers (YABCs) to a population sample of the centers' young adult graduates (N = 1,321). Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected via a 15-question electronic Survey of Disconnectedness that compiled students' perceptions of the centers' overall effectiveness. Specifically, 10 close-ended questions were used to facilitate quantitative data collection, while 5 open-ended questions facilitated the qualitative responses. The quantitative responses were tabulated and analyzed usingStatistical Package for Social Sciences.
