Mission: The mission of the Human Services Evaluation (HSE) TIG of the American Evaluation Association is to improve the practice of evaluation within the human services field. TIG members seek to improve human services theory, practice, and capacity building through the development and application of state-of-the-art evaluation techniques.
Scope: The TIG focuses on the evaluation of the full range of human services programs and settings for individuals
families, and communities. Such programs and settings include, but are not limited to, those involving child welfare,
counseling, employment development, family development, physical and mental health, parent and family education,
and school-based services.
Activities: Typical activities of the HSE TIG include bi-monthly meetings, collaboration with other TIGs on issues relevant to human services evaluation, AEA365 Blog Takeovers, and representation at the annual AEA Evaluation conferences. This TIG emphasizes opportunities for networking and relationship building. All of these activities are designed to assist our members in strengthening their own evaluation practice(s), collaborating with colleagues, and advancing the field.
