Abstract: The goal of this ongoing monitoring and evaluation is to assess Healthy Start (HS) progress towards meeting its performance goals. Results from monitoring and evaluation efforts will provide actionable evidence to support the improvement, sustainability, replication, and dissemination of the program. The information collected will be used to obtain consistent information across all 100 grantees about HS, its participants, and its outcomes. Respondents include pregnant women and women of reproductive age that were served by HS and HS staff. This revision seeks to reduce the burden of data collection on grantees and program participants, as well as to focus the evaluation more clearly on progress towards meeting performance goals regarding program impact. In the process, this will ensure that collected data is meaningful for monitoring and evaluation, and that previously separate data systems can be streamlined, thus improving efficiency.
