Whether you are a policymaker or a program manager, you will need to determine if your program actually works as intended and why or why not.
Dr. Cynthia Osborne, Associate Dean for Academic Strategies and director of the Center for Health and Social Policy at the LBJ School of Public Affairs, will discuss how to begin to answer the question of “Does it work?” including how to develop a strong logic model that guides the evaluation of programs. Dr. Osborne is the founder and director of the Child and Family Research Partnership and its new national Prenatal-to-3 Policy Impact Center and helps state and national policymakers and NGOs use rigorous research to develop and strengthen policies impacting children and families.

The Center for Health and Social Policy (CHASP) is the home of social policy at The University of Texas at Austin and the LBJ School of Public Affairs. CHASP’s mission is to reduce social and health disparities in communities, the U.S., and abroad by conducting rigorous interdisciplinary research, facilitating collaborations, and educating the next generation of innovative policy leaders. CHASP is a resource for scholars, policy- and decision-makers, and communities for expertise, perspective, and connections – all focused on the policy relevance of the most pressing social issues. CHASP is also a catalyst for interdisciplinary solutions and collaborations at The University of Texas at Austin and beyond. We are #LBJsocialpolicy.
