Tools or approaches are methods that systematically collect data to determine the benefits, changes, or shifts in skill, knowledge, attitude, behavior, condition, or life status for individuals participating in a program. Program refers to the specific set of activities that are carried out by the award recipient and supported by OJJDP award funds in whole or in part. Program participant refers to an individual who started a program. Individuals refer to parents or caregivers. Parent is defined as a child’s or adolescent's biological parent, adoptive parent, foster parent, or stepparent through marriage. Caregiver means an individual, including a relative, neighbor, or family friend, who regularly or frequently provides care, with or without compensation, for a child or adolescent for whom the individual is not the parent. This individual may also be designated as a temporary adult caregiver. Outcomes refer to the specific, measurable benefits or changes in program participants that occur during or after their involvement in the program's activities. Examples include reduced substance use, increased stability, improved mental health, or increased prosocial behaviors.
