- Description:
- The evaluation completed herein measures the outcomes of the goals of collaborating to form the Georgia Network to End Sexual Assault or ONES A. This evaluation is a follow-up to the agency's last outcome evaluation in May 2001. The coalition has been in place since the early 1980s. The three main coalition focus areas of advocacy, training, and education are evaluated in this study. The questions on the Adkins Coalition Questionnaire (ACQ) were administered during December 2004 to a sample of four GNESA staff members. The timeframe identified for the evaluation was June 2003- June 2004. The ACQ consisted of 18 items specifically designed to address the four distinct areas of staff expertise. Descriptive data were collected, analyzed, and presented in qualitative and tabular formats. The results showed that GNESA is achieving the goals set by their Advisory Commission with a moderate rate of success. Recommendations for improvement include increased communication between rape crisis centers, updating the website, expanding board membership, and more reliable enforcement of some laws and accreditation standards were also identified and submitted.
