SW 552 Applied Program Evaluation for Social Work

Carefully designed and implemented evaluation can answer critical questions for social work practitioners such as: What group of intended beneficiaries does a program actually reach? Did the intervention accomplish its goals? How can interventions or programs be improved? In this course, students will learn the foundations of program evaluation design in social work practice. Working with a community partner, students will construct a comprehensive evaluation design that engages community stakeholders and is responsive to the structural and sociocultural context.
