The Department of the Army is offering this grant for a comprehensive evaluation of its Youth Program. This initiative aims to thoroughly assess the program’s effectiveness through a multi-faceted approach. Grantees will be responsible for developing, executing, and documenting a detailed process evaluation, which examines how the program operates. Additionally, an outcome evaluation will be conducted to measure the tangible impacts and results achieved by the program participants. A crucial component of this grant also includes a robust cost-benefit analysis, designed to determine the economic efficiency and return on investment of the Army’s Youth Program. The findings from this evaluation will provide valuable insights to enhance program design and resource allocation, ensuring the continued success and improvement of youth development initiatives.
