Description:Citation: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Framework for program evaluation in public health. MMWR 1999;48(No.RR-11):1-42.
Effective program evaluation is a systematic way to improve and account for program actions involving methods that are useful, feasible, ethical, and accurate. The framework is a practical, nonprescriptive tool, designed to summarize and organize essential elements of program evaluation. The framework comprises steps in evaluation practice and standards for effective evaluation. Adhering to these steps and standards will allow an understanding of each program's context and will improve how evaluations are conceived and conducted. The framework inherently maximizes payoffs and minimizes costs because it is a template for designing optimal, context sensitive evaluations.
