Foundations & Government
Evaluation & Research
Funders are all faced with dealing with the major changes in the sector. Their dilemmas include choosing a strategic direction, determining whether current investments of resources are being best used, or just building an information base around a certain issue to ensure that they are asking the right questions. While some foundations have retained nonprofit infrastructure capable of undertaking these efforts, many have not.
Evaluation & Research
Fio Partners has access to a full range of research and evaluation tools to support the information needs of our clients. On-line surveys, key informant interviews, focus groups, and use of our assessment tools, such as our Strategic Growth Guide and Management System Assessment Tools, enable us to build a base of information that can provide confidence to decision makers. Evaluation studies of human service programming as well as literature surveys, and studies of current states of a particular field are all within our ability to carry out.
