Review
“Evaluating Family Programs, addresses the gap in evaluative research that results when research models do not accurately meet the contextual presuppositions on which programs and services are based... For anyone planning evaluative research on family- and context-oriented programs, the book is important reading.”
—Robert T. Constable, Social Work in Education
“Evaluating Family Programs, is tightly organized... The authors should be commended for their honest, carefully balanced discussion of decision making, the trade-offs that characterize their evaluation of family programs, and the resultant gains and losses. This book will be a useful tool for students, researchers, and policy planners.”
—Suzanne K. Steinmetz, Contemporary Sociology
“Evaluating Family Programs, edited by Heather Weiss and Francine Jacobs, comprises 22 chapters written by 27 authors (including three social workers)... The presentations come from researchers, evaluators, and program directors. Practical suggestions about selecting outcome measures and sources of advice and information are included.”
—Benjamin Schlesinger, Social Work
