Abstract
This article presents the reflections and insights of a graduate of Spalding's Psy.D. program who took the Program Evaluation course that is the focus of this special issue 20 years ago and has made Program Evaluation a central component of his career. Helpful elements of the course are noted as are ways that the course could have been strengthened then as well as now. Implications of these insights for the future of the course are also detailed.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Prevention & Intervention in the Communityis on the cutting edge of social action and change, not only covering current thought and developments, but also defining future directions in the field. Under the editorship of Joseph R. Ferrari since 1995, Prevention in Human Services was retitled as the Journal of Prevention & Intervention in the Communityto reflect its focus of providing professionals with information on the leading, effective programs for community intervention and prevention of problems. Because of its intensive coverage of selected topics and the sheer length of each issue, the Journal of Prevention & Intervention in the Community is the first-and in many cases, primary-source of information for mental health and human services development.
