CCBR worked with UW D.I.R.E.C.T.I.O.N.S, a post-secondary information and career readiness conference for Indigenous Youth across Ontario sponsored by St. Paul’s University College. CCBR’s mandate was to: strengthen conference tracking, engage Indigenous youth who participate in the conference, and evaluate its effectiveness.
This project's purpose was to understand and clarify the Ottawa Heart Model and the Lunch and Learn program of smoking cessation that was developed amongst a range of partners within Grey and Bruce and to build an evaluation framework for each program. This project was funded by Keystone Child, Youth & Family Services.
CCBR conducted an online survey to see the extent to which Waterloo Region Immigrant Employment Network (WRIEN) had influenced the hiring practices of employers in the region. The survey also sought information about future needs of employers and the role of WRIEN, noting the integration of WRIEN into immigrant partnership projects.
CCBR conducted an evaluation of the World Vision Canada’s Free Form Program. The purpose of the evaluation was to describe and understand the activities (processes) and short-term impacts (outcomes) of the program. The evaluation determined the extent to which the program was successful in building the organizational capacity of participating organizations and made recommendations.
This project was an outcome evaluation of World Vision Canadas’ Partners to End Child Poverty (PECP) program designed to develop national strategies with community-based organizations (54 across Canada) to advance the well-being of children, their families, and the communities in which they live.
