Evaluation and Program Planning is a quarterly publication aimed at a broad audience of professional evaluators, individuals involved in program planning and management, and academic social scientists. Its contributors come from a wide range of backgrounds, fields, and viewpoints such as government, public health, education, policy, professional evaluation, and the non-profit sector. One consistent feature, a requirement that submissions address a practical “lesson learned”, helps make this journal especially useful in the promotion of hands-on evaluation practice, since even articles with a narrow focus must contain material that is relatable to the broader world of evaluation. Additionally, many issues also devote a substantial portion of the journal to a specific topic, making a wide range of subject-matter perspective easily available to the reader. The latest issue of Evaluation and Program Planning (volume 29 issue 2, 2006) contains a special topic section on “Program Capacity and Sustainability” that will be of particular interest to those involved/with non-profit sector organizations. |
