Making Measures Work for You: Outcomes and Evaluation
September 20, 2007
8:30 AM-10:30 AM
Location: The San Diego Foundation, 2508 Historic Decatur Road, Suite 200, San Diego, CA 92106
The case for measuring outcomes is hard to refute: If you can't assess it, how can you know it's happening? Yet measuring outcomes can be tricky. For example, are we mistaking partial measures for the full truth? Is it possible to measure impact meaningfully given the challenges of time and control? GrantCraft is a source of practical wisdom for grant makers on the tools and techniques of effective grant making and their materials will serve as the basis for this workshop.
