Center for the Pacific Asian Family

1. Center for the Pacific Asian Family Organizational Evaluation Project

2. Project Background • CPAF had an overarching theory of change that needed a working logic model for each program • Data collection tools had been created organically as programs changed and developed • Program database was constructed to measure outputs instead of outcomes

3. What we asked ourselves • How do we measure our impact? • Survivor-centered, trauma-informed definitions of “success” • How do the services we provide help survivors reach their goals? • Development of working logic models • How do our tools help us measure? • Review and revision of data collection tools • Exploration of database options

4. Tools to share • Goals “menu” for case plans • Survivor self-assessment and exit survey • “Storycorps” template

5. What we’ve been thinking about • Creating a “culture of curiosity:” involving staff at all levels with discussions about outcomes and sharing data across the organization • Developing culturally and linguistically sensitive approaches to data collection and evaluation • Expanding the definitions of “data”: finding creative ways to gather survivor input • Community-building: engaging with survivors beyond their participation in our programs • Alignment with the field: dialogue with funders and other DV providers about outcome measurements
