We have decided to start a nonprofit to reduce reading gaps in elementary school students after the pandemic. We have started a twice a week intervention to reduce these gaps. We are doing an assessment after 2 months to see if these reading gaps have been improved. If I’m looking at the needs assessment stage – pre-assessment stage, what will be the main component I’m focused on? Please don’t include all the questions, but what do the results of the questions suggest in regards to this intervention? Should we proceed? Why or why not? Make sure to include the scenario.

We have decided to start an intervention to help older adults experiencing loneliness. We have paired these older adults up with young professionals who visit them at least twice a month and talk to them on the phone once a week. We want to see how this is impacting the loneliness score of both parties to see if we should roll this out at other facilities.   If we examine this from the empowerment evaluation perspective, what will we be focused on? Do you think this will be the best way to examine this? Why or why not? Make sure to include the scenario in your answer.
