CBD101: Making Evaluation Findings “Actionable” to Improve Practice - Natalie Wilkins & Jennifer Lockman
Scheduled: Thursday, June 21, 2012, 2:00 - 2:20 PM EDT
Description: 

Making sure evaluation findings and lessons learned are used to improve practice is a challenge many evaluators face. This webinar will describe a four-step framework that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Division of Violence Prevention has begun to use for making important (but sometimes inaccessible) research and evaluation findings “actionable” to improve practice. A brief case study example from a suicide prevention evaluation will also be presented to illustrate how the framework can be used to turn evaluation findings into concrete, actionable tools to support practice.
