"I found the link to Point K in the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Evaluation Primer. It was fun and easy to use, but most importantly, the logic model was a great way to evaluate our first year funded by the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration. I also used the evaluation model, which was equally useful. It's great for visual folks like me."
Susan M. Lee, RN, PhD, Nurse Scientist, Yvonne L. Munn Center for Nursing Research, Massachusetts General Hospital


"I have been using Point K extensively with a number of organizations/programs and have been thrilled with the results. I have used your materials to facilitate a 2 day workshop and [the participants] are thrilled, as well. Everyone I introduce to Point K becomes an advocate. Thanks so much."
Kathy Johnson, MPH, Program Evaluator, Oklahoma State Dept. of Health


“[Point K makes it] easier to explain to new staff, the board and our partners what we do, and it has saved us an enormous amount of time communicating new ideas...Any time someone from a different organization mentions that there is lack of communication in regards to planning, I always give them your website address."
Patty Ochoa, Program Director, Pacoima Beautiful


"The knowledge of evaluation that I gained [at Point K] is perfect because it is a set of guidelines that I worked to create using the tools. These guidelines are based on the reality of our work, and that is more useful than anything."
Guido Sanchez, Director, HudsonPride Connections


"SEN-SA-TIO-NAL!!!!
I´ve just discovered you. I´m so excited. It´s a GREAT tool. I´m defining indicators for 7 social programs in the company, and this extraordinary tool makes everything easier. Thank you."
Mónica Beatriz Galiano, Founder & President, Iniciativa Brasil


"I wish I could put into words how much your site has helped me in developing strategic plans for the three programs my organization intends to implement. Your tools have given me the ability to write an effective grant proposal, showing the development, implementation, and outcome of each program. Thank you for providing a guiding light for small nonprofits like ours. More small organizations need to know that there are resources like Innovation Network, willing to help us."
Keith Elzey, Executive Director, Housing Consultants for Change Inc. (HCCI)


"GREAT WORK! This is a wonderful tool to simplify the creation of a plan. I look forward to working with the tool as a giant leap toward helping us to take control of our organization's destiny and ultimately to provide better services to our clients. Kudos to you!"
Jim Serrat, Music of Puerto Rico Foundation


"Please let me take this opportunity to tell you that I have been searching for easily understandable evaluation materials for some time and yours are excellent. I am thrilled that they present the material in a clear and concise manner. I have heard repeatedly that evaluation is overwhelming and confusing, and although I don’t find it to be difficult (in fact, I find it quite enjoyable), I have been challenged to convince my colleagues that they not only can do evaluation but that they WANT to do it. Thank you for your assistance."
Rebecca Vermillion Shawver, Assistant Director of Grant Development, Ivy Tech State College
