Program Evaluation
To meet the expectations of the legislature and the people of Minnesota, an evaluation coordinator is measuring the outcomes and value of programs, projects and partnerships supported by the Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACHF) through the Minnesota Historical Society. In October 2010, the Society worked with Wilder Research to improve the Society's ability to evaluate its ACHF projects and programs. The Society's staff and partners are now strongly positioned to ensure that ACHF projects and programs use best practices, current scholarship and when appropriate, incorporate state-of-the-art technology for demonstrating measurable outcomes. During the 2012-2013 biennium, the Society's evaluation coordinator will continue to track the impact of ACHF projects and programs to ensure these initiatives demonstrate measurable outcomes as well as economic value for citizens. These results will be shared on two websites: legacy.leg.mn and legacy.mnhs.org.
