Program evaluation should provide feedback about implementation, processes, and outcomes that can be used for program planning, improvement, and reporting. I can evaluate your program for you, serve as the external evaluator for your grant, or build your capacity to evaluate your own program. 

More and more often funders are requiring partnerships and community coalitions to create systems level changes. I can help you to form a partnership or coalition, evaluate both the internal workings and results, develop a strategic plan, or strengthen your partnership or coalition.

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.

If you want to design a new program, or develop your existing programs, I can help by researching best practices, gathering information through focus groups and key informant interviews, use other tools and methods to develop effective and efficient programs that meet the needs of the communities you serve.

Do you need data collected or summarized? Services include conducting large or small scale needs and resources assessments, collecting data through focus groups, community forums, interviews, surveys, or other means. I can also synthesize 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.

I am a certified Change Intelligence (CQ) facilitator. This effective system for developing change intelligence was developed by Dr. Barbara Trautlein of Change Catalysts, and has been used by several Fortune 500 companies and organizations worldwide. I can share this system with your organization to build your change leadership and help you to facilitate change.
