Description: |
Suitable as a guide for agencies and organizations responsible for program evaluation, for researchers who design scientifically credible evaluations of government and privately sponsored programs, and for policy officials who are investing in the concept of evidence-based policy to guide their decisions in areas of crime prevention and control. |
Synopsis: |
Although billions of dollars have been spent on crime prevention and control programs during the past decade, scientifically strong impact evaluations of these programs are uncommon in the context of the overall number of programs that have received funding. Improving Evaluation of Anticrime Programs is designed as a working guide for agencies and organizations responsible for program evaluation, for researchers who must design scientifically credible evaluations of government and privately sponsored programs, and for policy officials who are investing more and more in the concept of evidence-based policy to guide their decisions in crucial areas of crime prevention and control. |
