Prop47-Evaluation
Prop 47 Grant
Evaluation
Pasadena Intervention and Directional Alternatives (PIDA) Prop 47 grant program’s overarching goal is to expand capacity to effectively meet the needs of juveniles in the criminal justice system.
Goal 1: Increase systems capacity and infrastructure to address juvenile delinquency
Goal 2: Decrease Drug and Alcohol Abuse
Goal 3: Decrease Juvenile Recidivism Rates
A project of this scope needs high quality evaluation. Our project includes hiring SPSG, Inc. as our independent Evaluator. SPSG has served as the independent Evaluator for PUSD since 2010, which has included previous state and federal grant programs received by PUSD that support students’ social and emotional needs, and is familiar with PUSD schools and our community, as well as the evidence-based practices included in this project. SPSG has extensive experience evaluating education, health, mental health and social services programs, and is proficient in all aspects and methods of evaluation stated in this proposal.
SPSG will conduct a comprehensive evaluation plan to ensure an ongoing review of the project’s progress and a thorough assessment of its overall effectiveness. The multi-method approach to our evaluation includes empowerment, process, fidelity, and outcome procedures. Our evaluation plan is designed to collect and analyze data on how the project is affecting individual student behavior, in accordance with privacy requirements, to ensure the programs are working to improve our students’ well being and our school environment.
