Each program has its own unique mission, but not all programs are equally successful in achieving that mission. While some organizations are self-sufficient in designing their program plans, others struggle. When a contractor starts building a house, that contractor does not pick up a hammer and start pounding nails into the bedroom frame; rather, someone has to design the plan for the entire house before construction can begin. Midwest Evaluation can help your organization facilitate the collaborative process of developing a plan, a blueprint for action, so that staff and possibly partner agencies can implement the program effectively to achieve its ultimate mission.
