what is evaluation?
When we evaluate a domestic or family violence intervention (a policy, program, service, training, standards, etc), we are interested in seeing how useful or effective it is. Evaluation is interested in the value of something. Evaluation uses research techniques but does not have to be complicated; even simple evaluations can provide important information.
Evaluate your programs and services to:
measure progress towards goals
refine goals and strategies
improve the quality of interventions
improve outcomes for clients, users and target groups
build financial and other support for a program or service
build the body of evidence about ‘what works”
