This presentation by Leah Nell Adams focuses on the evaluation of client demographics and outcomes for the National AgrAbility Project. It emphasizes the importance of tracking client demographics, understanding the types of operations involved (e.g., farming and aquaculture), and analyzing trends in disabilities over time. The session outlines how to collect data—via Excel, Paper, Access, or SPSS—and discusses the necessity of reporting impacts to justify funding. Key demographic insights from 2003-2004 are shared, along with future steps for gathering outcomes.
