Evaluating partnerships to prevent and manage chronic disease

Butterfoss, F.D. (2009). Evaluating partnerships to prevent and manage chronic disease.

To be effective and sustain themselves over time, public-private partnerships must make evaluation a priority.

Specifically, partnerships should evaluate

  1. their infrastructure, function, and processes;
  2. programs designed to achieve their mission, goals, and objectives; and
  3. changes in health and social status, organizations, systems, and the broader community.

This article describes how to 

  1. develop a comprehensive evaluation strategy based on partnership theory; 
  2. select short-term, intermediate, and long-term indicators to measure outcomes; 
  3. choose appropriate methods and tools; and 
  4. use evaluation results to provide accountability to stakeholders and improve partnership function and program implementation.
