Purpose of Evaluation

Evaluation allows all involved to:
  • Assess project or program effectiveness.
  • Improve countermeasures.
  • Allocate scarce resources more efficiently.
Without evaluations, subgrantees, project directors, and program directors and managers could not know:
  • When to make adjustments to countermeasure development or implementation.
  • If programs and individual projects are accomplishing their intended results.
  • If one program is more or less effective than another.
