Overview:
The Center for Urban Research and Learning is partnering with University of Michigan's Program for Youth and Community to provide participatory evaluation research workshops to youth in the community. The two-day workshop will prepare young people to employ practical participatory tools for gathering information at the community level. Through the workshop, young people will develop specific skills and practical tools for program evaluation, assessments of community needs and assets, policy issue analysis, and other studies. It will strengthen the civic engagement and leadership development of young people in the community.
