We used a multimodal approach and purposively sampled 21 participating population-based cancer registries in the United States to ensure variation across several registries. The registries reported prospective staffing data and retrospective costing data, completing data collection from October 2021 to September 2022, reporting retrospective costing data for July 1, 2020, through June 30, 2021. From lessons learned from prior studies, we engaged participating registries early and throughout the study, ensuring the collection of meaningful, accurate quantitative data, as well as insights not captured quantitatively. Case volume is a major driver of registry costs. (On average, high-volume registries outspend low-volume registries by nearly 3x, annually). Upon examination of registry activities by case volume, we found that the two most resource-intensive registry activities are data acquisition and data processing, which may be addressed by innovations, such as electronic reporting and automation. Innovative data transfer and processing approaches could increase timeliness of data collection and reduce the labor resources required to process manually collected data. Registries adopting these innovations might achieve cost savings, which could make resources available to support other registry activities.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48046,"journal":{"name":"Evaluation and Program Planning","volume":"112 ","pages":"Article 102639"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144502703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some researchers have emphasized that an increased effectiveness of Transitional Living Programs is possible with an underlying philosophy such as Housing First or harm reduction. However, literature on the impact of these types of programs on homeless youth is limited. Given the lack of knowledge in this area, the aim of our longitudinal qualitative study was to understand the impact of a long-term transitional housing program, operating from a Housing First and harm reduction philosophy, on homeless youth. The 20-unit transitional housing program is in a large metropolitan Canadian city and provides support on-site. Homeless youth between the ages of 18–24, admitted into the transitional housing program were eligible for participation in the study. Fifteen youth participated in in-depth semi-structured interviews and assessments at baseline and seven youth were followed-up with 6 months later. The data was analyzed using the six-step process of thematic analysis. Youth reported that living in the transitional housing program over time contributed to decreased substance use and positively influenced their educational and career outcomes, interpersonal relationships, and health and well-being. Perhaps the most significant impact described by youth was the non-judgmental environment that parallels the Housing First and harm reduction philosophy of the program. Further, close relationships with staff were emphasized as a major driver for positive changes in participants’ outcomes over time. The current study also found substantial need for further research in areas such as aftercare for youth leaving transitional housing and the need for support for youth who must leave these programs prematurely.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48046,"journal":{"name":"Evaluation and Program Planning","volume":"112 ","pages":"Article 102635"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144314037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Our article is informed by higher education, implementation and evaluation research and findings from the Third Mission project of the University of Vienna, Austria. Within the scope of the project, we conducted a multi-stakeholder workshop and an interview study with representatives from seven universities. We illustrate the service learning approach with two course examples from the University of Vienna’s psychology master’s programme. Then, we discuss how service learning can be systematically implemented at the university level using frameworks from implementation science and findings from an interview study. Results indicate that successful implementation of service learning at the university level is supported by long-term collaboration between the university and community partners and an institutional culture that visibly values students’ and lecturers’ additional efforts. Finally, we seek to advance the evaluation of higher education by presenting a comprehensive participatory approach to service learning assessment that actively involves diverse stakeholders, including students, faculty, and community partners and that can be applied across various disciplines. By integrating multiple perspectives, we offer a framework for capturing the multidimensional impacts of service learning on educational outcomes and community engagement.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48046,"journal":{"name":"Evaluation and Program Planning","volume":"112 ","pages":"Article 102622"},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144321771","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
