Impact Measurement & Evaluation

Impact measurement and evaluation are essential components of effective program management and organizational learning for nonprofits. As Catalyzed Impact, we offer comprehensive impact measurement and evaluation services to help organizations assess the effectiveness, outcomes, and impact of their programs and initiatives.

How we can help


Logic Model Development: We work with organizations to develop logic models that outline the theory of change, program inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes, and impact pathways. This helps organizations clarify their program goals, define key performance indicators (KPIs), and establish a framework for measuring and evaluating impact.

Evaluation Planning: We assist organizations in developing comprehensive evaluation plans that align with their program objectives, target populations, and available resources. This includes defining evaluation questions, selecting appropriate evaluation methods and data collection tools, and establishing evaluation timelines and budgets.

Data Collection: We support organizations in collecting relevant data to assess program effectiveness and outcomes. This may involve designing surveys, interviews, focus groups, observation protocols, and other data collection instruments to gather quantitative and qualitative data from program participants, staff, and stakeholders.

Data Analysis: We analyze evaluation data using a variety of quantitative and qualitative methods to assess program outcomes and impact. This may include descriptive statistics, inferential statistics, thematic analysis, content analysis, and other data analysis techniques to identify patterns, trends, and insights.

Outcome Measurement: We measure program outcomes and impact using established indicators and metrics aligned with program goals and objectives. This includes tracking changes in participant knowledge, attitudes, behaviors, and conditions over time to assess the effectiveness of program interventions.

Stakeholder Engagement: We engage stakeholders, including program participants, staff, funders, and community members, in the evaluation process to ensure their perspectives and feedback are incorporated into the evaluation findings and recommendations.

Reporting and Communication: We prepare comprehensive evaluation reports that communicate evaluation findings, conclusions, and recommendations to stakeholders in a clear, concise, and accessible manner.

Utilization of Findings: We support organizations in using evaluation findings to inform decision-making, program improvement, and organizational learning. This may involve facilitating discussions, workshops, and strategic planning sessions to discuss evaluation results, identify actionable recommendations, and develop strategies for program refinement and scaling.
