Question:
I am looking for evidence on the use of Butterfoss and Dunet's "Plan Quality Index" for reviewing the quality of community health action plans. If not this tool, a recommendation for a similar qualitative assessment tool would be appreciated. Thank you!
Answer:

Hi Anna,
Thanks for your question. Evaluation is a key piece in developing, implementing, and refining community change initiatives. Unfortunately, Ask an Advisor is here to respond to more general questions about community development, and cannot act as a research service, thus I'm not able to speak to the specific tool you mentioned. You may consider, though, checking out Chapters 36-39 on the Community Toolbox. These chapters discuss evaluating community programs and initiatives. Chapter 38, specifically, reviews some methods for evaluation comprehensive community initiatives and provides links to other resources that may be helpful to you.
