Resource Brief: The Second Chance Act Grantee’s Guide to Local Evaluation Milestones
Program evaluations require careful timing and planning at each stage in the Second Chance Act (SCA) grant life cycle to ensure a program’s long-term success. Launching an evaluation too early or late can adversely affect the evaluation; the timing needs to be on target.
This resource brief from the Evaluation and Sustainability Training and Technical Assistance (ES TTA) team at RTI International and the Center for Justice Innovation (formerly the Center for Court Innovation) discusses the key evaluation milestones to achieve at each stage in the SCA grant life cycle from the point of the award notice to the closeout of the award.
