The program may have access to an epidemiologist at this point but has not integrated their expertise throughout the program's activities.

The program works with epidemiologists around data collection and reporting needs, but the program does not have access to surveillance experts whenever needed and does not include surveillance expertise in planning activities.

The program works with epidemiologists around data collection and reporting needs and integrates surveillance expertise in planning activities related to building data systems, improving data validity or timeliness, and improving analyses. However, surveillance experts are not integrated in other activities (implementation planning, evaluation, etc.).

In order to access timely, valid surveillance data in order to identify emerging injury threats and related factors, the program has created a programmatic culture around epidemiology which relies on close partnerships with surveillance experts and integration of surveillance practices.

This integration includes epidemiological expertise in planning activities, in identifying populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities, in obtaining valid data, in improving data systems, in analyzing data, in creating data products, in implementation planning, and in evaluating outcomes of interest over time.

4. Surveillance data access

The program accesses data for injury and violence needs, but there may still be gaps in data access for other injury and violence topics or related factors.

There also may be gaps in the quality of data applied to the work of the program and partner communities.

The program identifies and uses data sources for most key injury outcomes, related injury outcomes, and related factors (risk, protective, and shared risk and protective).

These data sources meet at least two of the following:

  • Provide valid and reliable data,

  • Provide timely data,

  • Are appropriate to the level of the community work (for example, schools, neighborhoods, counties),

  • Enable the program to quickly and accurately identify populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities,

  • And/Or help the program track the outcomes and related factors over time.

The program identifies and uses data sources for all key injury outcomes, any related injury outcomes, and any related factors (risk, protective, and shared risk and protective).

The program has a general idea of partnership gaps but has not engaged in a scan of needs and gaps in several years.

The program has conducted a recent assessment of partnership gaps, needs, and opportunities, but not all types of partners were scanned.

One to two types of the following partners were included:

  • Key injury topic areas;

  • Key risk factors, protective factors, and shared risk and protective factors;

  • Key skillsets (epidemiology, evaluation, policy, implementation, etc.);

  • Partners spanning hierarchies from community members to decision makers;

  • Multi-sector partners;

  • Partners with divergent perspectives who may question biases and assumptions;

  • And/Or populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities.

1. Access to assessment and evaluation expertise

The program may have access to an assessment expert or evaluator at this point but has not integrated their expertise throughout the program's activities.

The program works with assessment experts and evaluators around data collection and reporting needs, but the program does not have access to these experts whenever needed and does not include their expertise in other activities (implementation planning, valuation, etc.)

The program works with assessment experts and evaluators around data collection and reporting needs and integrates their expertise in:

  • Planning activities related to creating assessments,

  • Building data systems,

  • Improving data validity or timeliness,

  • And improving evaluation.

However, these experts are not integrated in other activities (implementation planning, evaluation, etc.).

In order to respond to emerging injury threats and related factors, the program has created a programmatic culture around assessment and evaluation which relies on close partnerships with evaluators and integration of evaluation practices.

This integration includes assessment and evaluation expertise in:

  • Planning activities,

  • Identifying populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities,

  • Obtaining valid data (qualitative and quantitative),

  • Improving data systems,

  • Analyzing evaluation data,

  • Creating data products,

  • Implementation planning,

  • And improving implementation through continuous quality improvement.

The program initiates conversations with partners focused on evaluation at the beginning of project planning to ensure evaluation is embedded.


Partners are consulted on various aspects of evaluation.

The program integrates partners into planning evaluations of both programs and processes in order to refine ongoing work.


The program works with partners so their perspectives help with two to three of the following:

  • Identify key evaluation questions,

  • Identify data collection methods and existing data sources to answer evaluation questions,

  • Create data systems to manage evaluation data,

  • Shared learning spaces to review evaluation findings,

  • Shared brainstorming to apply emerging findings to ongoing work in a continuous quality improvement framework,

  • Identify barriers and facilitators of past interventions,

  • Evaluate the need to change interventions or focus on other outcomes/factors,

  • And create products to disseminate evaluation findings.


The program initiates these conversations at the beginning of planning to ensure evaluation is embedded.

In order to leverage partnerships to increase effectiveness in responding to emerging injury threats and related factors, the program integrates partners into planning evaluations of both programs and processes in order to refine ongoing work.

  • Identify key evaluation questions,

  • Identify data collection methods and existing data sources to answer evaluation questions,

  • Create data systems to manage evaluation data,

  • Shared learning spaces to review evaluation findings,

  • Shared brainstorming to apply emerging findings to ongoing work in a continuous quality improvement framework,

  • Identify barriers and facilitators of past interventions,

  • Evaluate the need to change interventions or focus on other outcomes/factors,

  • And create products to disseminate evaluation findings.


The program initiates these conversations at the beginning of planning to ensure evaluation is embedded.

3. Identification of data gaps related to community injury and violence prevention, including upstream factors

The program has identified surveillance data sources for identifying community strengths, challenges, and needs.

This includes using surveillance data to identify populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities.

However, the program does not integrate other assessment methods and relies solely on surveillance data.

The program uses a needs assessment process alongside existing surveillance data for identifying community strengths, challenges, and needs (including identifying populations who experience disproportionate burden and high disparities).

This process is not structured and typically occurs at the start of project work.
