Access to data entry and analysis tools is restricted to authorized users.

New: Title VI Evaluation Tool

ACL is excited to announce the Title VI Evaluation Tool! Title VI programs are required to conduct periodic evaluations of activities provided through the Title VI grant program. This tool provides everything you need to conduct an evaluation of how well your program is meeting the needs of your elders and caregivers. The tool supports you in planning your evaluation, conducting your survey, and collecting and analyzing the survey results. The tool is a ready-to-use product that includes two surveys: one for Part A/B services (Nutrition and Supportive Services) and the second for Part C (Caregiver Support) services.

This evaluation tool that can assist you in managing your program and meeting the requirements of the Title VI grant is available now on ACL.gov. Get the evaluation user guide here and the survey response tool here.
