Evaluation
The Partnership helps its clients use evaluation to improve program processes and understand program outcomes.
Our evaluators have conducted more than 140 evaluations for a diverse group of customers including local governments, tribal governments, agencies, coalitions, and community-based organizations throughout Arizona since 1996. All of our evaluators have advanced degrees in social science fields and have considerable experience working with community-based programs to conduct evaluations that meet customers’ needs. The Partnership is careful to hire people who have extensive professional training, have worked in field settings with community based programs and who are able to develop positive working relationships with program staff.
