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 shared information about our current feedback practices.

  • Who are the people you serve with your mission?

    Individuals who causes harm in their intimate relationships through actions of domestic violence or abuse.

  • How is your organization using feedback from the people you serve?

    To identify and remedy poor client service experiences, To identify bright spots and enhance positive service experiences, To make fundamental changes to our programs and/or operations, To inform the development of new programs/projects, To identify where we are less inclusive or equitable across demographic groups, To strengthen relationships with the people we serve, To understand people's needs and how we can help them achieve their goals

  • What significant change resulted from feedback?

    We lengthened our program from 8 weeks to 10 in response to feedback that there was too much material to adequately absorb in the shorter time frame. We created a self-paced, online course to accommodate clients whose schedule, available time commitment, or family or work responsibilities prevented them from joining one of our groups. This course utilizes video and captioning for those who learn better by watching a video vs. reading, those who have difficulty reading, or whose first language is not English. We enhanced the connections we make between the concepts we share in our programming and spirituality to utilize a strength some of our clients have as persons of faith.

  • Which of the following feedback practices does your organization routinely carry out?

    We collect feedback from the people we serve at least annually, We take steps to get feedback from marginalized or under-represented people, We aim to collect feedback from as many people we serve as possible, We take steps to ensure people feel comfortable being honest with us, We look for patterns in feedback based on people’s interactions with us (e.g., site, frequency of service, etc.), We act on the feedback we receive

  • What challenges does the organization face when collecting feedback?

    It is difficult to get the people we serve to respond to requests for feedback, It is difficult to find the ongoing funding to support feedback collection
