Algorhythm is an “impact science” company that enables non-profit agencies to collect rigorous evaluation data and to make meaning of it in real time. Non-profits can see the data they collect immediately, rather than having to wait until the data are no longer useful for making improvements. Algorhythm’s technical expertise, combined with their philosophical alignment with the values of participatory evaluation, makes this company a natural partner. Algorhythm supports our team to develop quantitative measures that are valid, reliable, and relevant to the leadership development of parents.
Project Impact helps nonprofits define and evaluate impact and improve programs and strategies based on evaluation. We are collaborating with Project Impact to design and facilitate training in qualitative evaluation methods, coaching, and a community of practice for the pilot cohort of the Parent Leadership Evaluation Network.
