Abstract

The MEG evaluation project began with development of an approach appropriate for the assessment of short-­‐term and long-­‐term impacts of the program. Thus, the project included planning and development of process assessment activities and assessment of program outcomes and impact. Evaluation planning also included development of a sampling plan for construction of the treatment and control groups needed for this evaluation design.
