Introduction
Overview of the program
The agency overview should describe the program in detail. This overview should provide a detail description of the agency that you are going to evaluate. The purpose of the overview is to provide the reader with background information of the program. Upon reading this paper, one should have a sense of the following:
• Official title of the program and how long it’s been in operation
• Vision,
• Mission,
• Goals,
• Objectives
• Purpose of the program
• Population is serves
• Services provided and how is it provided
• Number of staff members
• Resources
Some of this information can be found on the agency’s website. However, you may have to look at physical documents or interview your administrator. Of course, this paper should follow APA format.

Purpose
Here you state the purpose of the proposed evaluation and whether it is a process/formative or outcome/summative evaluation. You should also state the research questions that will guide your evaluation. For example
• How effective is the STA service at reducing recidivism among its participants?
• Is the STA program an efficient program at reducing recidivism among black youth?

Methodology
The methodology section is your road map. It describes the procedures for your research in a very detailed way so that your reader is able to either know exactly what you did and or the reader can replicate your study. The section has several subsections (however the subsections will vary) such as research design whether you are doing a process or outcome evaluation, whether it will be qualitative or quantitative or mixed methods.
