| Abstract | This investment, in turn, brings increased pressure to continually prove to funders that youth development programs affect student outcomes (Zeller-Berkman, 2010). The increased emphasis on accountability has sometimes forced community-based organizations (CBOs) to maintain a myopic focus on outcomes that are easily measurable but not necessarily the most important (Fusco, Lawrence, Matloff-Nieves, & Ramos, 2013). Underfunded nonprofits can feel overwhelmed by the intense emphasis on producing “evidence-based” outcomes, especially if evaluation feels like an “add-on” rather than being aligned with and integrated into program goals.
