What Others Are Saying

Kavod Senior Life engaged Annette and REC to conduct a comprehensive evaluation project which included logic models, evaluation plans, data analysis, focus groups and interviews. We did this to help determine the best ways to serve our 400 low income seniors as well as to better document what our outcome measurements need to be. Annette is bright and extremely thorough. She promised what she said she would do. She spent extra time with my team and me at every step to make sure we understood her processes and initial results. She listens and will take feedback as she fine-tunes her recommendations. She helped jumpstart our data collection process. We have asked her to propose a Phase 2 to this project and our hoping the foundation that funded the initial phase will agree to this. I would highly recommend other organizations involved in utilizing a consultant to help them with their data research to contact Annette and REC.

The Colorado School Medicaid Consortium (The Consortium) hired Research Evaluation Consulting (REC) to evaluate our School Health Services Coordinator Grant Program. Annette and her team worked closely with our leadership and program teams to consider the challenges of evaluating our grant program in its early stages. REC was able to assist in updating our logic model, determining the most valuable evaluation method for a case study and providing helpful, actionable recommendations to improve our grant program and improve data collection across our organization. The REC team is responsive and knowledgeable; they truly took the time to research our program recipients and partners and recommend best methods and practice tailored to our specific needs and evaluation. I highly recommend Annette and REC and plan to contract with them for any future evaluation endeavors. Thank you, Annette!
