Celebrating Families! (CF!) provides a wide range of interventions that strengthen family recovery, improve family functioning and increase healthy living skills.

Available evaluation tools can help sites in the following ways:

1. Improve effectiveness by:

• • Preparing participants for the main concepts presented during each session.
  • Giving Group Leaders insight into participant knowledge and understanding.
  • Providing guidance on lesson pacing and re-teaching.

2. Provide evaluation results for funders by:

• • Giving sites with no formal evaluation instruments a way to collect and process evaluation data.
  • Enriching or complementing any existing agency instruments sites may already be using.
  • Collecting data that could be used in a cross-site comparison.

Our tools have been identified to assist sites in developing their own evaluation of Celebrating Families!. They are only suggestions to use for your data collection, or to complement your existing data collection and evaluation process.
