Developing and Mounting the Program
|

Site Visits:
We have
secured the funding for five or six site visits. Except for the Peconic Landing training, none have been scheduled yet. We hope to visit
during the program and afterwards while it is being evaluated. If you
are interested in having us visit your site, and can provide Chuck
Nicholas with lodging, let us know as soon as possible. We hope to have
all site visit arrangements concluded as soon as possible. |

Evaluating the Program |
|
We are planning an elaborate evaluation process, one that is designed to
assess the quality and popularity of the program, and, just as
importantly, the extent to which its new narrative of aging has impacted
its participants. Advisory Committee Member, Ruth Ray, will be helping
with the design of the questionnaire, and, of course, we will be looking
to our partners for assistance and suggestions as well.
Most of the work on this phase of the program will not begin until the
program is actually launched, but we advise everyone to be thinking of
it now. How we conduct this phase will have a great deal to do with our
being able to continue the grant for an additional two years, although
there will have to be a hiatus in 2006-2007 while the NEH evaluates our
performance.
