Services

Program Evaluation and Needs Assessments - Including Data Collection, Management, and Analysis

I can evaluate your program for you, serve as the external evaluator for your grant, or build your capacity to evaluate your own program. I also conduct large or small scale needs and resources assessments, collect data through focus groups, community forums, interviews, surveys, appreciative inquiry, or other ways. I can also compile existing data from a variety of sources (e.g., the census, other government sources, foundations, research organizations) to develop a comprehensive picture of the issue or community of interest.

Partnership and Coalition Development and Evaluation

My experience includes writing successful funding applications for corporation and foundation grants and responding to state and federal Requests for Proposals or Applications. Pursing larger grants from government and large foundation funders requires organizational preparation, and I can also help with that.
