This paper will describe at least one process evaluation measure and at least one outcome evaluation measure that could be suggested for the Consultation and Education Department at Greenby Community Mental Health Center to display the program effectiveness and efficiency. The paper will also explain the scope and purpose of the chosen process evaluation and outcome evaluation measures and how they influence the design. Issues and challenges that may arise from evaluating the Greenby Community Mental Health Center will be covered. Finally, why an evaluation may be helpful to the Consultation and Education Department director’s situation will be explained. “Program evaluation is carefully collecting information about a program or some aspect of a program in order to make necessary decisions about the program. Program evaluation can include any or a variety of at least 35 different types of evaluation, such as for needs assessments, accreditation, cost/benefit analysis, effectiveness, efficiency, formative, summative, goal-based, process, outcomes, etc. The type of evaluation one undertakes to improve ones programs depends on what one wants to learn about the program. (McNamara, n.d.)” For the unique situation faced by the Consultation and Education Department at Greenby Community Mental Health Center, the cost/benefit analysis evaluation measure could be suggested.” A cost benefit analysis finds, quantifies, and adds all the positive factors. These are the...

...Difference between analysis and evaluation Analysis refers to the process of gathering information, evidences, assumptions about an object or a problem. While evaluation is the process of weighing out different sides, contrasting perspective, assumptions about that object by applying specific criteria's. University of Virginia provided different methods of analysis such as descriptive analysis to offer a detailed description to describe main features of the collection of data, comparative analysis to compare and contrast different resources, SWOT analysis to address strength, weakness, opportunities and threats to the research, cause and effect analysis to analyze co-relation between input and output, statistical analysis is to gather and format data to come up with claims on the basis of data. It can be used in cause and effect analysis. According to Cornel University research of evaluation department, evaluation can be done by formative or summative way. Formative evaluation is a program cycle where we can implement feedbacks to improve results. It concentrates to determine audience, efficiency of program, decide methodology, and finally approach of analysis. Structured conceptualization is used to define a evaluation program, specific criteria needs to apply to implement analysis, different monitors needs to set to monitor progress and provide feedbacks. Summative evaluation is a goal based evaluation which determines if goals of a program were achieved or not. It also...

Unlike previous years, the infected suspects were new immigrant Salvadoran men rather than the predominant white population. In response to this epidemic, “TB Support Program” was implemented by the county health department director, Henry Evans, to control and prevent further transmission of TB in Lull County. Evaluation Goal The goal of this evaluation is to determine the effectiveness of “TB Support Program” in preventing transmission of TB among Salvadoran immigrants. This evaluation will investigate components of the TB Support Program that are performing optimally and should be expanded and replicated in future initiatives. In addition, this evaluation will help determine...

...Personal Project and Evaluation Methods Garry R. Scott University of Phoenix AET/ 535 June 28, 2014 Instructor: Stephanie Krebs The fundamentals of Program Evaluation I advocate the principle of evaluation definition that asserts that it is a systematic process that is comprised of a collection of analyzed data enabling us make decisive solid decisions. Because evaluation is a systematic process that contributes to the determination as of what level of objectives has previously been realized, in addition to current objectives students are striving to attain; this idyllically empowers a person to make informed decisions. The process will consequently make certain that the established goals are achieved as required by the programs. It is vital to be aware that evaluations are important since it assists in making vital decisions concerning the impact, effectiveness, or efficiency of a certain program (Boulmetis & Dutwin, 2005). Then again, efficiency asserts that the extent to which a project or program has been productive in accordance to its resources while effectiveness establishes to the degree that particular stipulated objectives have been accomplished. Furthermore, impact refers to the degree to which a project or program has brought about various changes in which either could be advantageous or detrimental. Evaluation is essential in evaluating program implementation, fidelity, resource utilization, and to the value of the program or project in...

...PORTFOLIO ANALYSIS: SEPARATING WINNERS FROM LOSERS IN THE ASSOCIATION WORK PLAN Once an association has adopted a strategic plan, the next step is to convert the goals and objectives in that plan to a work plan and budget. But how can this be done? Every association program or service has a constituency and a claim on resources. How then to weigh the allocation of scarce resources to ensure that the objectives of the plan are attained and member needs are served? Portfolio analysis has been devised to help associations bridge the gap between strategy formulation and strategy implementation. In other words, it helps you make the hard choices of where to put your money.

...Policy evaluation can be better defined as a process by which general judgments about quality, goal attainment, program effectiveness, impact, and costs can be determined. It is an assessment of whether a set of activities implemented under a specific policy has achieved a given set of objectives. Once public policy has been operationalized through the formal adoption of laws, rules, or regulations, and the bureaucracy has taken action to implement the policy, some form of evaluation needs to be accomplished to determine if the policy has achieved the desired outcome or impact. Public policy represents the expenditure of limited public resources and or restrictions on certain types of individual or organizational behavior. Consequently, the public has a right to expect that their government officials are accountable for the validity, efficiency, and effectiveness of those policies. Policy evaluation is therefore an absolutely critical stage in the policy process whereby we can determine whether a policy’s effects are intended or unintended and whether the results are positive or negative for the target population and society as a whole. In essence, policy evaluation is the process used to determine what the consequences of public policy are and what has and has not been achieved. Elected officials, policy makers, community leaders, bureaucrats, and the public want to know what policies work and what policies don't, and the purpose of evaluation is to determine whether an implemented...

...Formal Evaluation Model June 30, 2016 CJA 385 Formal Evaluation Model Policy making in criminal justice can be broken down into two main focal points; monitoring and evaluation. During the monitoring phase, this is where factual information about policy goals are monitored. During the evaluation phase, this is where the question arises; did the monitoring phase address the potential outcome of the intended objective? In criminal justice, the formal evaluation model would benefit these types of policies. This paper will summarize the formal evaluation model and explain why it is the most effective evaluation process in criminal justice. This paper will also look at a policy involved with criminal justice and provide reasoning why the formal evaluation process is more practical than the pseudoevaluation and decision-theoretic evaluation. According to Willam Dunn (2012), Formal evaluation is an approach that uses descriptive methods to produce reliable and valid information about policy outcomes but evaluates such outcomes on the basis of policy-program objectives that have been formally announced by policy makers and program administrators. During this type of evaluation the goals and objectives are measurable values, meaning they contain specific and realistic information gathered during the monitoring phase. In criminal justice the formal evaluation process is vital because the effectiveness and efficiency of policy outcomes are defined by legislation, various...
