  • Summary

  • When it comes to conducting a needs assessment, one of the most important things you can do is listen to the community you’re trying to help.

    Integrating community voice into your assessment creates programs and services that genuinely reflect what people need and want.

    Community members have firsthand knowledge about the challenges they face and the resources they lack, which can really shape your understanding of the local landscape.

    This episode kicks off a series that will give you strategies, tools, and resources needed to create stronger, more thorough assessments.

    We’ll discuss where to find secondary data that can shed light on your community’s current landscape and how to collect your own data through surveys, focus groups, and interviews.
