How We Can Help

Our evaluation services are tailored to fit your needs—whether your project is large, small, short-term, or long-term. We work with nonprofits, educational institutions, government agencies, and campus departments on:

  • Program evaluation and impact assessment
  • Survey design and analysis
  • Longitudinal and statistical research
  • Document and literature reviews
  • Data warehousing, infrastructure, and best practices
  • Advanced analytics using SPSS, R, SAS, Qualtrics, and more

Each project is led by a primary evaluator and backed by a collaborative team, ensuring high-quality, consistent service. You’ll have a reliable point of contact and receive regular weekly updates throughout the project

Flexible Services

Our team can meet you on campus, at your workplace, or remotely via Zoom. Whichever works best for your schedule. We understand that evaluation needs vary, and we’re here to support:

  • One-time data consultations
  • Ongoing evaluation partnerships
  • Special projects or internal capacity building
  • Community-focused initiatives

No project is too big or too small—we’re happy to help with anything from a few hours of analysis to year-round services.
