What We Do
We provide affordable and efficient support to mission-driven organizations looking to evaluate performance, and more sharply communicate their impact.
We partner with clients to identify key challenges, lead evaluative work to understand implementation, and translate those lessons into practical improvements.
Need a monitoring-and-evaluation plan, a compelling success story for a grant, tailored metrics, or a fresh look at existing data? We bring the structure, methods, and know-how to turn evidence into better implementation and communication.
Our Approach
Practical Evaluation and Communication Associates, LLC—“Practical Associates”—partners with organizations to blend sound evaluation with audience-focused communication.
We turn performance insights into stronger programs paired with data-driven stories with potential to inspire action.
Solid evidence plus effective communication equals greater social impact.
