After attending a presentation about evaluation and its use by Community Science at the Grantmakers in Health’s conference on the Art and Science of Health Grantmaking, the foundation engaged Community Science to assist in building its capacity to monitor the short- and long-term impact of their work in the greater Kansas City area. To accomplish this, Community Science facilitated a theory of change/logic modeling process complete with indicators and data collection methods as well as made recommendations for a monitoring system. (2008-2009) In the upcoming year, we will continue to work with the foundation to implement the monitoring system. (2010-2011)
