Evaluating and Improving Your Services Through Parent Input: Implementing the 'My View on Services' Tool
Do you really know how parents feel about your services? Do you know how much they value your services and support? Are you really creating and adapting your program to meet their needs? The “My View on Services” (Young, Gascon-Ramos, Campbel and Bamford) evaluation tool was adapted by CHOICES for Parents to collect data, rather than base programmatic change solely on anecdotal feedback from parents. Results of this evaluation tool will be shared with attendees including how it was adapted, distributed and the results implemented.
- Attendees will learn about the "My View on Services" evaluation tool.
- Attendees will learn how CHOICES for Parents distributed the tool and collected its data.
- Attendees will learn how to take the tool back to their state and apply it for their families they serve to: improve their services, and use its data for grant writing and reporting.
