Outcomes. Are intended outcomes focused on closing gaps, reaching universal levels of service, or disaggregating progress by race, ethnicity, and other equity dimensions where relevant for the policy objective? SUBRECIPIENTS must briefly describe the goals of the project, and the evidence base for the interventions funded by the project. a) Demonstrate that the intervention is implemented as a program evaluation, see OMB M-20-12. "Recipients are exempt from reporting on evidence-based interventions in cases where a program evaluation is being conducted. Criteria requires the recipient to: i. describe the evaluation design including whether it is a randomized or quasi experimental design; ii. state the key research questions being evaluated; iii. describe whether the study has sufficient statistical power to disaggregate outcomes by demographics; iv. post the evaluation publicly and link to the completed evaluation in the Recovery Plan; v. describe the timeframe for the completion of the evaluation (including a link to completed evaluation if relevant) vi. after sufficient evidence of efficacy has been provided, determine whether the spending for the evaluated interventions should be counted towards the dollar amount categorized as evidence-based for the relevant project vii. Recipient may be selected to participate in a nation evaluation which would study the project along with similar projects. viii. Consider how a Learning Agenda, either narrowly focused on SLFRF or broadly focused on the recipient's broader policy agenda, could support their overarching evaluation efforts in order to create an evidence-building strategy for their jurisdiction. See OMB M-19-23 b) Strong Evidence-based interventions- Is the intervention, based on a "well-designed and well- implemented experimental studies conducted on the proposed program with positive findings on one or more intended outcomes". i. If yes, identify the program as "Strong Evidence Based", cite the study, summarize the findings, and provide the associations to the COUNTY program.
