Western Eval's Suite of Services
Program Evaluation
Our program and project evaluations generate useful learning for your organization. We are versed in several evaluation methodologies including outcomes-based, developmental, impact, and culturally responsive. Our evaluations come with a problem statement, literature review, essential questions, theory of change, key findings, and recommendations. Our goal is to deliver fresh perspectives on your work.
Program Design
In addition to your organization's expertise, our program design service infuses program goals and theories of change with scholarly rigor. We apply systematic methods to infuse the design process with fresh ideas, surface assumptions with logic models, and couple evaluation to design.
Survey Design and Analysis
The purpose of collecting survey data is to learn something about a community or group of people that your organization serves. We use modern techniques to design and administer surveys. We then analyze the data with an eye toward learning. In some cases, organizations have data that they've collected recently or over years. They may lack the time or tools to analyze the results. As data scientists, let us assist you to make sense of data that you have already collected.
Research Briefs
To create research briefs on relevant topics, we comb through recent scholarship. We then digest this literature into concise, meaningful report. Research briefs keep your abreast of recent trends in thinking about social problems and tweaking program models.
Facilitating Focus Groups
We design questions, follow-ups, and keep the conversation on target to get the valuable information you need to inform your decisions. Focus groups are useful as an alternative to interviews and surveys when dialog, debate, and deliberation are important for the generating the insights or information that an organization needs. Focus groups are well-suited for young people and for culturally responsive evaluations projects.
Grant Reporting
Turning evaluation findings, data, and narratives into grant reports can be time consuming. For us, however, it is an art form and passion. Grant reports are how you communicate your valuable work to granting institutions. Let us help maintain a positive and mutual relationship with your granting institutions so that you are ensured future funding.
