Featured learning and development project
The Pew Fund for Health and Human Services launched the Evaluation Capacity Building Initiative (ECBI) in early 2018 to strengthen their grantees’ abilities to monitor and evaluate their programs and use data to improve services for some of Philadelphia’s most vulnerable residents.
Through group learning sessions and individualized coaching, the program expands the abilities of organizations to monitor their ongoing progress, use data to inform their practices, and evaluate results to determine whether goals are being met and how to make improvements.
Pew partners with ImpactED and McClanahan Associates, Inc., to help Pew grantees explore how to collect more useful data, encourage data-driven organizational cultures, and build stronger programs.
