How to Demonstrate the Financial Value of Your Reentry Program: An Introduction to Economic Evaluation

Economic evaluations are a compelling way to demonstrate the value (in terms of net cost savings) of your reentry program to your partners, local decision-makers, potential external funders, and other stakeholders. They can also help you plan more accurately for sustainability, replication, and/or expansion by calculating the actual costs of delivering your program.

In this 45-minute webinar from the Evaluation and Sustainability Training and Technical Assistance Team (ES TTAT) at RTI International and the Center for Court Innovation, attendees learned the basics of economic evaluation, including the various types of economic evaluations, the type of data to collect, and the approach to analysis.
