Assignment:
1. Who are key stakeholders in an alcohol and drug abuse program? Describe their role. That is, identify who is invested in this program's success.
2. What are some ways that a program (alcohol and drug abuse program) success could be defined? What is a clear statement that clearly specifies success for this particular program (i.e., how will we know that the program is successful vs. not successful?
3. a. List 2 (distinct) outcomes that demonstrate that the program is effective.
b. Identify 2 (distinct) indicators that measure program success/effectiveness for outcome 1.
c. Identify 2 (distinct) indicators that you could use to measure program success/effectiveness for outcome 2.
4. Describe a plan for data collection for this program, including how it would be collected (e.g., surveys; observations; interviews) and from whom (think about stakeholders and anyone that is influenced by this program.
(This question is asking to elaborate on information that was identified in Q1 and Q2 (a-c). In Q2 (a-c), you identified what you will look for to measure program efficacy as a way to determine whether the program is successful or not; in Q4, you are describing a plan for how you will obtain this information.)
5. Describe how this overall gathered information determines whether the program's goals are realized in the outcomes that are assessed.
