Perhaps we have a sense that our programs are working great for some folks but we aren’t reaching others and we don’t know why. Implementation assessment is a way of examining program operations and resources to understand how well a program is going as planned. Implementation assessment can help you gain a stronger sense of your program’s identity and effectiveness\, and help you articulate accomplishments and needs to others. It can help you make better claims about how your program is making a difference and for whom. We provide a model that is practical\, user-friendly\, and will help you be more intentional about where to put your time and resources.
