week one evaluation:   The name of the agency that you will... | Psychology

The name of the agency that you will be evaluating in this course NOTE: If the agency prefers, you may use a pseudonym for confidentiality purposes. The agency should provide psychological and/or social services and be a not-for-profit agency.  Discuss the ethical issues involved with being a consultant for a social services agency. How will the confidentiality of the clients be maintained throughout your program evaluation project? Are there other ethical or legal issues that need to be considered? By the end of the week, you will need to interview at least one key personnel at the agency. When deciding who to interview, consider the following: Who can provide the best information about the services delivered by the agency? Who can provide the best information about how the agency currently measures outcomes related to effectiveness of their programs? Is reviewing the WEBSITE the better option? Review the components that are required for your logic model. The person(s) interviewed should be able to explain the inputs, activities, outputs, and desired short-term, intermediate-term, and long-term outcomes.
