How to evaluate a program focused on the impact of married women’s labor market participation on poverty?

It's my pleasure to help you.

Thanks a lot. Your support has meant everything to me.

To evaluate a program focused on childhood poverty, extended family, and adult poverty, consider the following:

Assess changes in child poverty rates and depth of poverty within participating families using the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM) before and after the program.

Evaluate the program's impact on extended family members' poverty levels, including grandparents and other relatives living in the household, to capture the broader effects on the family unit.

Analyze changes in adult participants' employment, earnings, and economic well-being to determine if the program effectively breaks the intergenerational cycle of poverty.

Gather qualitative feedback from families on their experiences, perceived benefits, and suggestions for program enhancement to ensure it meets their unique needs.

Monitor changes in participants' access to social services and community resources to assess the program's effectiveness in addressing the multifaceted challenges faced by families in poverty.
