简要总结
The purpose of the Imperial Valley Regional Occupational Program (IVROP) ReadyforLIFE program evaluation is to determine whether primary (i.e., behaviors) and secondary (i.e., attitudes) outcomes improve for youth participants after completing the ReadyforLIFE program. Understanding the ways in which the IVROP ReadyforLIFE program supports healthy partner relationships and economic stability is important for those providing services to at-risk youth populations.
详细描述
After being informed about the study and giving consent, participants will enroll in a program that collects data at enrollment, at the end of the program, and 12 months following program enrollment. The length of the program ranges from four weeks up to one year, depending on the setting and the number of optional workshops students opt to receive. Research questions in this study are framed by a descriptive evaluation design to assess whether outcomes improve for at-risk youth who participate in the IVROP ReadyforLIFE program. Primary and secondary outcomes are assessed before and one year after participants complete core curricula - Relationships Smart Plus, Mind Matters, and Money Habitudes (pre to follow-up). Primary outcome measures will indicate whether behavior improved for healthy partner relationships and financial stability. Secondary outcome measures will indicate whether improvements were made in the attitudes and expectations that facilitate and reflect behavior for healthy partner relationships and financial stability.
