Methods
Evaluation Design
Describe the evaluation design you will use to answer the evaluation questions. For example, will you be
using tracking sheets to collect information about a strategy implementation (process evaluation)? From
who? When? Will you be doing a post-only evaluation? Will you be doing a pretest-posttest evaluation?
(outcome evaluation). More information about evaluation design can be found in the GTO Evaluation
Step.
Data Collection
Describe the tools you will use to collect data, including any surveys, interview questions, etc. Explain
who will be collecting the data, when, how it will be collected and your process for storing the data once
it has been collected. More information about data collection can be found in Section C: Collecting Data
of the GTO Evaluation Step Appendices.

knowledge/attitudes/behaviors:
 Levels of collaboration
 Available resources
 Number and types of risk and protective factors for which data is collected
 The accessibility of risk and protective factor data
 How data is catalogued at the state level
