Did you take MORE? Join the MORE Alumni Evaluation Network
If you find yourself working to adapt evaluation approaches, looking for relevant data, or beginning to design your evaluation work, the MORE Alumni Evaluation Network on LinkedIn has you covered.
Last month we:
- found a data source for student and community needs during long-term school closures
- learned about data communication considerations in these uncertain times
- found resources one on adapting evaluation frameworks and the other on sharing evaluation-related blogs, each with its own cartoon!
Join 65 of your nonprofit colleagues in the alumni network to get evaluation support, COVID-19 related and beyond. Questions? Contact Meredith at programs@nonprofitmoco.org.

Feedback we received from the Hyper-Change Workshop:
“This is the most helpful financial webinar I’ve been part of recently with very tangible takeaways. Mike was knowledgeable but general enough to be applicable to many types of organizations. I came away with tangible tools that helped to build confidence in decision making because of a methodical approach with his framework.”
