Evaluation

The work of the Center has been the subject of a great deal of writing, research, and evaluation – both commissioned work directly related to our programs, as well as other work arising from synergistic partnerships with writers and researchers. We have supported research and evaluation that ensures program improvement, demonstrates a compelling case for bringing circles of trust into the world, and contributes to public discourse about this work.
