It'd be great to have other cities involved with this. It's something the funding organization is interested in.

Nothing would limit us from taking this to other cities. I'd suspect some minor technical changes. It's just how this effort was funded.

What is interesting is that most homeless youth or at-risk homeless youth do have access to smart phones. The difference is that they typically do not have an active data plan and rely on wifi access at local libraries, shelters, coffee shops, etc.

I was also involved with this... more on the product side working with the shelters.
