This theme describes how much young people are engaged in efforts to determine how well the agency/community is doing its work. Is there a systematic effort to gather feedback on services? Are young people involved and informed on how efforts will be assessed and how the findings will be used?
Means to achieve this theme:
1. Feedback on services
2. Participation in evaluation activities
3. Responsiveness to feedback on services
4. Transparency regarding evaluation
For this theme Colorado ranked equal to the national average with strengths being Y/YA providing feedback on services and participation in evaluation activities.
Are findings from assessments that evaluate how well programs serving young people are shared with Y/YA?
Is there a process in place to use Y/YA feedback to improve programs and/or services?
