How we listen

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

Seeking feedback from people served makes programs more responsive and effective. Here’s how this organization is listening.

done We demonstrated a willingness to learn more by reviewing resources about feedback practice.
done We shared information about our current feedback practices.
  • Who are the people you serve with your mission?

  • What significant change resulted from feedback?

    After each classroom presentation, we collect anonymous student evaluations. These evaluations tell us the impact we are having on the kids we serve, including what they did or did not like about our presentations, as well as the issues they are currently struggling with (e.g., suicide, vaping, alcohol or drugs, social media, suicidal thoughts). Students are also allowed to provide their name and request to speak to a school counselor. This information is collated and documented and passed on to school administrators and parents, as well as our staff and speakers. In response to these evaluations, our programs are modified accordingly. Also, we pass our evaluations at our Parent Ed events and follow a similar process for assessing how impactful our programs were.
