Abstract

Description

The program also must decide what its overall evaluation will look like. The toolkit presents three evaluation designs: Pre-SANE/post-SANE evaluation: In this design, a program compares how far cases progress in the criminal justice system before and after the implementation of the SANE program. Post-SANE-only evaluation: The program compares how far cases progress in the criminal justice system in the community after it started the SANE program with data from other communities. Ongoing evaluation: The program begins charting prosecution outcomes from this point forward. Programs choosing this design will not be able to make comparisons yet, but they will be preparing to compare their findings with data from other communities.
