Developing Culturally Responsive Evaluations
The Evaluation Services Core provides evidence-based and culturally responsive metrics and materials resulting in fruitful collaborations that add value to program efforts. These services help nonprofit, government and tribal entities produce evidence-based, culturally appropriate practices.
The Evaluation Services Core is partially supported by the Center for Health Outcomes and Population Research (NIGMS CoBRE P20GM121341).
