Comprehensive Evaluation Planning for Effective Social Services

This project aims to evaluate and improve family support programs by assessing service delivery effectiveness, improving outcomes, and reducing family-related challenges. The goal is to enhance community connections, decrease stress, improve attendance and family functioning, and reduce suspensions. Services are culturally competent, trauma-informed, and tailored based on individual needs. Strategies like screening, trauma treatment, and resiliency skills building will be implemented for holistic support. Evaluation methods include analyzing high-risk cases, independent evaluations, and long-term cost-benefit analyses.
