If I want to persuade my boss about the benefits of program evaluation, could you give me some advice about how evaluation can be useful to the program administration?

Pleasure.

Thank you for sharing!

Maybe you can share these arguments with your manager. Program evaluation is critical for most managers to make sure that resources, such as human effort, time, and activities; money; material resources, etc., are not wasted but are allocated most efficiently and effectively . Evaluation results could also provide the evidence that would convince policymakers and funding agencies of the need for such treatment programs and centers.
