Why share your findings? Increase community support for your program Highlight a particular need in the community you are addressing Demonstrate your program’s effectiveness Increase fundability
Knowing Your Audience Stakeholder: one who is involved in or effected by a course of action • Who are your stakeholders? • For each group of stakeholders, consider: • How do they like to receive information? • What types of information would interest them? Do they tend to be data-driven or story-driven? • Are there any barriers to receiving information that need to be taken into account? (e.g. reading levels, language, etc.)
Knowing Your Data • What story will you tell with your data? • What pieces of data should be highlighted? • Look for data that illustrates something interesting, demonstrates change, or points to a need that should be addressed by future programs • Don’t be afraid to share if a portion of the program didn’t work • What pieces of data are not helpful or confusing?
