"Moving the needles" on community-wide issues requires cross-sector coordination and an engaged community.

There are countless community change initiatives working on a diversity of issues in our country, such as early childhood development, health care, education, poverty and homelessness, immigration and workforce development, and ecological sustainability. Evaluating Community Impact: Capturing and Making Sense of Community Outcomes is a three-day workshop intended to provide those who are funding, planning and implementing community change initiatives with an opportunity to learn the latest and most practical evaluation ideas and practices.

Join Liz Weaver and Mark Cabaj for this three-day workshop intended to provide those who are funding, planning and implementing community change initiatives with an opportunity to learn the latest and most practical evaluation ideas and practices. This workshop is best suited for those who have an interest in and some basic experience with evaluation but are eager to tackle the challenging but critical task of getting feedback on local efforts to change communities.

This workshop is for you if:

• You manage programs that need to be evaluated
• You are part of a collaborative that is trying to understand how to evaluate
• You are a community development professional who wants to make the connection between learning and community change
• You are in a collective impact network and wanting to understand shared measurement
• Evaluation is part of your job description
