Evaluation of the Social Development Partnerships Program

The Program works in partnership with not-for-profit organizations to help improve life outcomes for vulnerable populations in Canada. It has a $20 million annual budget with two distinct components: Children and Families, and Disability.

Key Findings

Recommendations

  1. Ensure that Program officials and funding recipients have a common understanding of the Program’s objectives, expected results and the key concepts (for example, social inclusion, partnerships, sustainability), to enable better performance measurement.
  2. Improve monitoring and reporting templates (for example, progress and final reports), as well as data collection tools (for example, surveys), to capture detailed information on how the Program is impacting its intended beneficiaries.
