Evaluation

Evaluation helps organizations recognize what they have done well and what areas need improvement. The process of evaluation involves measuring the impact of programs and practices to understand their effectiveness and any need for change. Evaluation efforts therefore greatly influence the future planning of a program. It can also impact sustainability, because evaluation can show sponsors that resources are being used wisely.
Tools: Tools to assist with evaluation efforts:
Prevention Platform: A comprehensive tool for designing an outcome or process evaluation and identifying data collection strategies.

Prevention Pathways: Technical assistance to answer questions related to evaluation, assist with planning evaluation efforts, and identify data collection instruments.

CADCA Coalition Institute: A goal of the National Coalition Institute is the widespread use of standards for evaluation and research to improve the effectiveness of anti-drug coalitions across the United States.

Prevention Management Reporting and Training System: This Web site provides a single point of access to a variety of content and core services, and offers a single sign-on to many Prevention web sites that previously required separate logins. The Prevention Management Reporting and Training System will provide all of CSAP education, data collection and training systems through one web portal.
