FIRST CONNECTIONS PROGRAM EVALUATION REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS (RFP)

First 5 LA has released a Request for Proposals for a First Connections Program Evaluation.

First 5 LA is seeking to contract with an evaluator to design and conduct an evaluation of the First Connections Program. This evaluation will focus on: a) program implementation; b) evidence of effectiveness; and c) (to the extent possible) relationship between implementation and effectiveness. The goal of the evaluation is to: 1) identify essential components to implementing the First Connections Program and demonstrate grantees ability to embed and expand EII practices within their agencies; and 2) recognize what EII practices were most effective in standardizing early identification and making successful referrals (i.e., referrals appropriate based on screening results and families followed through on referrals).

The RFP is posted on the First 5 LA Funding Center at https://www.first5la.org/funding-center/. Completed proposals will be accepted through 5:00 pm PT on April 5, 2019.
